Berean Strong's Lexicon mochorath or mochoratham: "the next day," "the following day," "tomorrow" Original Word: מָחֳרָת or מָחֳרָתָם Word Origin: Derived from the root חָרָה (charah), which means "to be hot" or "to burn," often used metaphorically to indicate anger or fervor. However, in this context, it is related to the concept of time, specifically the day following a particular event. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for "the next day" is ἐπαύριον (epaurion), Strong's Greek #1887. Usage: The term "mochorath" or "mochoratham" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote the day after a specific event or time. It is often used in narrative contexts to indicate the continuation of a account or the progression of events. The word emphasizes the passage of time and the unfolding of God's plans and purposes. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of time was closely tied to agricultural and religious cycles. The day was measured from evening to evening, and the idea of "the next day" was significant in the context of festivals, rituals, and daily life. Understanding the flow of time was crucial for maintaining the rhythm of worship and community life.
