Hebrew and Greek Praise and Worship Words

By GERARD ASSEY

Studying the original meaning behind key Hebrew and Greek words related to Praise and Worship can enormously enrich our understanding of how we are to worship the God of the Bible; while inspiring us to break free of all our shyness and inhibitions and become a more responsive worshiper as our Almighty, All-loving God rightly deserves!

Understanding biblical accuracy helps eliminate false assumptions associated with worship and replaces our cultural, so-called religious upbringings and biases with an accurate knowledge and right response to worship the KING of kings.

As we all know, much of the Old Testament was originally written in the Hebrew language and there are a lot of Hebrew words translated with just the use of one common word "praise" into our English language and therefore we only see it as one word in English- thus missing out into the deeper meaning of such powerful action words. The English Language is not a very descriptive language, especially for some of the Biblical phrases used for Praise and Worship. You will be surprised to note that there are more than 50 different Hebrew words associated with "praise" alone in scripture and this little booklet will help you to study and understand a number of such relevant Hebrew and Greek words related to praise and worship, along with their implied action and our appropriate response. And as you will discover, when you actually dive deep into the original language in the Scripture, you will get a taste of so much of 'meat-to-eat' depth of meaning! You will begin to see that there are many different forms of praise, and that each form is designed to express unique elements of worship, in a manner worthy of engaging the attention and response of God.
 

If your heart is to worship God, and to offer to Him what He has asked for, then this little booklet: 'Hebrew and Greek Praise and Worship Words' (containing a collection of one hundred of them) will most certainly deepen your understanding. All of these ancient Hebrew and Greek words listed here are meant to take you out of your comfort zone and enable you experience God in a fresh way, by profoundly shaping the way you worship.                                 

What you will find in this booklet is:

-The original Hebrew or Greek Word (from a total of one hundred)

-The corresponding Strong's Reference

-The phonetics (speech sound) or pronunciation of the said word

-And the scriptural references where that word is used in context with the particular word highlighted in bold

As you keep meditating on each word, you will find that most of these words for "praise" will help paint a totally different picture of a very distinctive and unique act of worship, in response to the different mighty acts of God. Each word conveys the accurate physical action required of by the worshipper, in an attitude of thanksgiving for what our God has done.

I finally, pray, that through these various expressions of praise and worship that they will enable and help you have a deeper understanding of God's original word, by inspiring and invigorating your response as our Almighty, All-loving God so rightly deserves

So just go ahead now and…

Raise your Praise,

About the Author

Dedication

Idedicate this book to My Sovereign Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who has been so very faithful in every area of my life...and I would like to express it the way King David did in 2 Samuel 7: 18-22

Then Gerard went in and sat before the LORD; and he said: Who am I, O Lord GOD? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far? And yet this was a small thing in Your sight, O Lord GOD; and You have also spoken of Your servant’s house for a great while to come. Is this the manner of man, O Lord GOD? Now what more can Gerard say to You?

For You, Lord GOD, know Your servant. For Your word’s sake, and according to Your own heart, You have done all these great things, to make Your servant know them. Therefore You are great, O Lord GOD. For there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears."

I will bless the Lord at all times;

His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
