It conveys a sense of longing or yearning, often in a relational context. This term is not frequently used in the Hebrew Bible, but when it appears, it emphasizes a strong emotional connection or attraction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, love and desire were integral to familial and community relationships. The concept of love extended beyond mere emotion to include loyalty, commitment, and covenantal faithfulness. The Hebrew language has several words for love, each with its nuances, reflecting the multifaceted nature of love in human experience and divine relationships.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to till, be a husbandman<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>plowmen (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">יָגַב</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>till, be husbandman</b></font>, only <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Qal</b></font> <em>Participle</em> plural <font class="hebrew2">לְכֹרְמִים וּלְֹיגְבִים</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/52-16.htm">Jeremiah 52:16</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_kings/25-12.htm">2 Kings 25:12</a> Qr (kt <font class="hebrew2">גבים</font>); see <font class="hebrew2">גוב</font> above <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>husbandman <p>A primitive root; to dig or plow -- husbandman. <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>וּלְיֹגְבִֽים׃ וליגבים׃ ū·lə·yō·ḡə·ḇîm ūləyōḡəḇîm uleyogeVim<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/jeremiah/52-16.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Jeremiah 52:16</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/52.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">טַבָּחִ֑ים לְכֹרְמִ֖ים <b> וּלְיֹגְבִֽים׃ </b> </span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/jeremiah/52.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> to be vinedressers <span class="itali">and plowmen.</span><br><a href="/kjvs/jeremiah/52.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> for vinedressers <span class="itali">and for husbandmen.</span><br><a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/52-16.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> of the guard to be vinedressers <span class="itali">and plowmen</span><p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3009.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3009.htm">Strong's Hebrew 3009<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/uleyogevim_3009.htm">ū·lə·yō·ḡə·ḇîm — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/3008.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="3008"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="3008" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/3010.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="3010"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="3010" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
