Berean Strong's Lexicon shemoneh or shemonah: Eight Original Word: שְׁמֹנֶה or שְׁמֹנָה Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning "to be fat" or "to cover with fat," which is associated with the idea of abundance or fullness. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3638 (ὀκτώ, oktō): The Greek numeral for eight. Usage: The Hebrew word "shemoneh" or "shemonah" is the numeral for the number eight. It is used in the Bible to denote quantity, order, and sometimes symbolic meaning. The number eight often signifies a new beginning or a new order, as it follows the number seven, which is associated with completion and perfection. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, numbers held significant symbolic meaning. The number eight is often associated with new beginnings, as it follows the completion of a cycle represented by the number seven. For example, circumcision, which is a sign of the covenant between God and Abraham's descendants, is performed on the eighth day (Genesis 17:12). This act symbolizes a new beginning and a consecration to God.
