Original Word:עֵמֶק
Part of Speech:Noun Masculine
Transliteration:`emeq
Pronunciation:ay'-mek
Phonetic Spelling:(ay'-mek)
Definition:Valley, plain
Meaning:a vale

Word Origin:Derived from the root עָמַק (amaq), meaning "to be deep."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: -G5327 (pharagx): Refers to a ravine or valley, used in the New Testament to describe geographical features.

Usage:The Hebrew word "emeq" primarily refers to a valley or a lowland area, often characterized by its depth and breadth. In the biblical context, valleys were significant geographical features that served as locations for battles, agricultural activities, and settlements. The term can also metaphorically imply depth, whether in terms of physical geography or spiritual and emotional experiences.

Cultural and Historical Background:In ancient Israel, valleys were crucial for agriculture due to their fertile soil and access to water. They were often sites of significant historical events, including battles and divine encounters. Valleys could also symbolize places of trial or testing, as they were often routes for invading armies. The cultural understanding of valleys as places of both sustenance and danger is reflected in various biblical narratives.
