However, the Greek term "ἄλσος" (alsos), meaning "grove," is sometimes used in translations to convey a similar idea of sacred trees or groves.Usage: In the Hebrew Bible, "Asherah" refers to both a Canaanite goddess and the wooden cultic objects associated with her worship. These objects, often translated as "groves" in older English versions, were typically wooden poles or trees set up near altars dedicated to Baal and other deities. The term is used to denote idolatrous practices that were condemned by the Israelite prophets and leaders.Cultural and Historical Background: Asherah was a prominent goddess in the ancient Near Eastern pantheon, often associated with fertility, motherhood, and the sea. She was considered the consort of the chief god El and later Baal. Worship of Asherah was widespread among the Canaanites and influenced Israelite practices, leading to syncretism and idolatry. The presence of Asherah poles in Israelite worship sites was a recurring issue, as these objects symbolized the blending of Canaanite and Israelite religious practices, which was strictly forbidden by Yahweh's covenant with Israel.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div>Word Origin of foreign origin Definition a Phoenician goddess, also an image of the same NASB Translation Asherah (18), Asherim (20), Asheroth (2).<div align="center"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> אֲשֵׁרָה, אֲשֵׁירָה <a href="/interlinear/2_kings/17-16.htm">2 Kings 17:16</a> proper name, feminine Ashera (Assyrian proper name, feminine Aš-ra-tu, with sign for deity, in Canaanitish proper name Abad-Ašratum, servant of A.
