It encompasses the early stages of life characterized by growth, learning, and development. In the Hebrew Bible, it often conveys the innocence, potential, and sometimes the folly associated with youth.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, youth was a significant phase of life, marked by preparation for adult responsibilities. Education, primarily in the home, focused on religious instruction and practical skills. The family and community played crucial roles in shaping a child's character and faith. The concept of "yalduth" also carried implications of dependency and the need for guidance from elders.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3205.htm">yalad</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>childhood, youth<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>childhood (2), youth (1).<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">יַלְדוּת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>childhood, youth</b></font>;
