Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: -G1378 - dogma: Refers to a decree or ordinance, often used in the New Testament to describe official edicts or religious decrees.

Usage:The Hebrew word "dath" refers to a decree, law, or regulation, often issued by a king or governing authority. It is used to describe official mandates that are binding and authoritative. In the context of the Bible, "dath" is typically associated with the laws and decrees of the Persian Empire, under which the Jewish people lived during the time of the exile and subsequent return to Jerusalem.

Cultural and Historical Background:The term "dath" is significant in the context of the Persian Empire, which was known for its structured legal system and the issuance of decrees by its rulers. The use of "dath" in the Hebrew Bible reflects the influence of Persian governance on the Jewish people during the period of the Babylonian exile and the subsequent Persian rule. This period was marked by the Jews' efforts to maintain their identity and religious practices while under foreign rule, often requiring them to navigate and adhere to the laws of the land.
