Original Word:עֹל
Part of Speech:Noun Masculine
Transliteration:`ol
Pronunciation:[ohl]
Phonetic Spelling:(ole)
Definition:Yoke, burden
Meaning:a yoke

Word Origin:Derived from the root עָלַל (ʿālal), which means to act severely or deal with harshly.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: -ζυγός (zygos) - Strong's Greek 2218: This Greek term is used in the New Testament to convey similar meanings of a yoke or burden, as seen in passages like Matthew 11:29-30.

Usage:The Hebrew word "עֹל" (ʿol) primarily refers to a yoke, a wooden bar or frame by which two draft animals, such as oxen, are joined at the necks for working together. It symbolizes subjugation, burden, or servitude. In a broader sense, it can represent any form of oppression or heavy burden placed upon individuals or nations.

Cultural and Historical Background:In ancient agrarian societies, the yoke was an essential tool for farming, allowing animals to pull plows or carts efficiently. The imagery of a yoke was commonly used in the Bible to describe the relationship between a ruler and his subjects or between God and His people. A yoke could symbolize both the positive aspect of guidance and the negative aspect of oppression. In the context of Israel's history, the yoke often represented the burdens of slavery or foreign domination, as well as the covenantal relationship with God, who offers a yoke that is easy and a burden that is light (cf. Matthew 11:29-30).
