Berean Strong's Lexicon
naar: Boy, lad, youth, servant, young man

Original Word: נַעַר
Part of Speech: Noun Masculine
Transliteration: naar
Pronunciation: nah'-ar
Phonetic Spelling: (nah'-ar)
Definition: Boy, lad, youth, servant, young man
Meaning: a boy, a servant, a girl

Word Origin: Derived from the root verb נָעַר (na'ar), meaning "to shake" or "to shake off."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3816 (παῖς, pais): Often used in the Septuagint to translate "na'ar," referring to a child or servant.

- G5207 (υἱός, huios): While primarily meaning "son," it can also refer to a young man in certain contexts.

Usage: The Hebrew word "na'ar" primarily refers to a young male, ranging from a child to a young adult. It is used to describe boys, youths, and sometimes servants or attendants. The term can denote both age and social status, often implying a stage of life characterized by vigor, potential, and learning.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the term "na'ar" was significant in defining roles and expectations for young males. Boys were expected to learn the ways of their fathers, participate in family and community life, and prepare for adult responsibilities. The transition from "na'ar" to manhood was marked by various rites and responsibilities, including religious education and, for some, military service. The term also reflects the hierarchical nature of ancient societies, where young men often served elders or those of higher status.
