tesha or tishah: Nine

Original Word: תֵּשַׁע
Part of Speech: Noun
Transliteration: tesha`
Pronunciation: TEH-shah or TISH-ah
Phonetic Spelling: (tay'-shah)
Definition: Nine
Meaning: nine, ninth

Word Origin: Derived from a root that may mean "to look about" or "to gaze," possibly indicating a sense of completeness or fullness.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for the number nine is ἐννέα (ennea), Strong's Greek #1767.

Usage: The Hebrew words תֵּשַׁע (tesha) and תִּשְׁעָה (tishah) are used to denote the number nine. This numeral appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, including counting, measurements, and chronological references.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, numbers often held symbolic significance. The number nine, while not as prominently symbolic as numbers like seven or twelve, is still significant in its own right. It is often associated with finality or completeness, as it is the last single-digit number. In Jewish tradition, the number nine can also be linked to the concept of judgment or truth.
