(6106) `etsem from '`atsam' (6105); a bone (as strong); by extension, the body; figuratively, the substance, i.e. (as pron.) selfsame:--body, bone, X life, (self-)same, strength, X very. See BDB p.782 # 6099 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here, the meaning of 'STRONG' is found in the following verses : Jos 23:9, Prov 7:26, Isa 8:7, Isa 53:12, Isa 60:22, Joel 1:6, Joel 2:2, Joel 2:5, Joel 2:11, Micah 4:3, Micah 4:7, Zech 8:22 EXAMPLES: Jos 23:9 For the LORD hath driven out from before you great nations a nd STRONG: but [as for] you, no man hath been able to stand1 before you unto this day. Prov 7:26 For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many STRONG [men] have been slain by her. Isa 8:7 Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the river, STRONG and many, [even] the king of Assyria, and all his glory: and he shall come up1 over all his channels, and go over1 all his banks: Isa 60:22 A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a STRONG nation: the LORD will hasten it in his time. Joel 1:6 For a nation is come up upon my land, STRONG and without number, whose teeth [are] the teeth of a lion, and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion. A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon themountains: a great people and a STRONG; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, [even] to the years of many generations. Joel 2:5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire thatdevoureth the stubble, as a STRONG people set in battle array. Joel 2:2 And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp [is] very great: for [he is] STRONG that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD [is] great and very terrible; and who can abide55 it? Micah 4:3, And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke STRONG nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. Micah 4:7, And I will make1 her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a STRONG nation: and the LORD shallreign1 over them in mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever. Zech 8:22 Yea, many people and STRONG nations shall come1 to seek5 the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD.
