Phonetic Spelling:(naw-veh')
Definition:Dwelling, habitation, pasture, abode
Meaning:suitable, beautiful

Word Origin:Derived from the root נָוָה (navah), which means "to dwell" or "to abide."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries:While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "naveh," the concept of dwelling or habitation can be related to Greek terms such as οἶκος (oikos, G3624) meaning "house" or "home," and κατασκηνόω (kataskēnoō, G2681) meaning "to dwell" or "to encamp."

Usage:The Hebrew word "naveh" primarily refers to a dwelling place or habitation. It is often used in the context of a peaceful or desirable abode, such as a pasture or a shepherd's dwelling. The term conveys a sense of tranquility and security, often associated with God's provision and care.

Cultural and Historical Background:In ancient Israel, the concept of a "naveh" would have been closely tied to the agrarian lifestyle of the people. Shepherds and farmers relied on fertile pastures and secure dwellings for their livelihood. The imagery of a peaceful abode would resonate deeply with a culture that valued land, family, and divine blessing. The term also carries spiritual connotations, symbolizing the presence and protection of God among His people.
