Strong’s 1446 – Gedor, wall, enclosure.
An interesting phenomenon happens at a vernal equinox, the sun crosses the Equator nearly equal day and night.
Strong’s Greek Number 1446 refers to the Greek word Ἑβραΐς (Hebrais), which means Hebrew (language). The Hebraistic (Hebrew) or Jewish (Chaldee) language—specifically, Aramaic (Chaldee), the vernacular spoken during the time of Yeshua and the apostles, not the classical Hebrew of the Old Testament.
Key Usage in the New Testament:
Acts 21:40 – Paul addresses the crowd in the Hebrew language (Aramaic), calming the mob.
Acts 22:2 – The crowd is silent, amazed that Paul speaks to them in Hebrew.
Acts 26:14 – Paul heard a voice speaking to him in Hebrew (or Aramaic), on the road to Damascus. Saying, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.” A metaphor from ancient agriculture—goads were sharp sticks used to prod oxen. Kicking against them only causes pain to the animal. This illustrates that Paul’s resistance to God’s will was futile and self-destructive. It underscores the futility of opposing divine purpose and the inevitability of surrendering to God’s grace.
In Revelation 16:1-21, we read “Megiddo is worth a a thousand cities”.
In Hebrew, the word for 1000 is אֶלֶף (eleph), a term with deep linguistic, numerical, and symbolic significance in the Bible and Jewish tradition.
Numerical and Linguistic Significance:
- The Hebrew word eleph (אֶלֶף) primarily means “thousand” and is used to denote large numbers in contexts like population counts (e.g., Numbers 1:46), military strength, or tribute (e.g., Genesis 20:16).
- It is also used in plural form, alafim (אלפים), meaning “thousands,” often referring to groups of people, such as “rulers of thousands” (Exodus 18:21), reflecting organized societal structures.
Biblical and Symbolic Meaning:
- Divine Time and Prophecy: The number 1000 symbolizes vastness and divine time. Psalm 90:4 states, “For a thousand years in Your sight are like yesterday when it is past, and like a watch in the night,”linking a prophetic day to 1,000 years. This idea is echoed in 2 Peter 3:8: “With the Lord one day is as a thousand years.”
- Divine Blessing and Judgment: God promises to bless those who love Him “to a thousand generations”(Deuteronomy 7:9), emphasizing enduring covenant faithfulness. Conversely, Isaiah 30:17 says “One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one,“ illustrating divine judgment and protection. The judgement is the withdrawing of God’s protection.
- Eschatological Hope: In Revelation 20, Satan is bound for “a thousand years”(Greek: chiliás), a period known as the Millennium, symbolizing Messiah’s future reign and the ultimate restoration of creation. Though the term is Greek in Revelation, it reflects the Hebrew concept of completeness and divine order.
In summary, 1000 in Hebrew (eleph) transcends mere arithmetic—it represents divine completeness, covenantal continuity, prophetic time, and spiritual abundance.
