She is noted as the daughter of Asher, one of the sons of Jacob, making her a member of the Israelite tribes. Her name is often associated with the idea of abundance or extension, possibly reflecting her role or significance within her family.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the context of ancient Israelite society, genealogies were crucial for establishing tribal identities and inheritance rights. Serach's inclusion in the genealogical records highlights her importance, despite the patriarchal context where women were less frequently mentioned. Jewish tradition holds Serach in high regard, with some midrashic texts suggesting she lived an exceptionally long life and played a role in the Exodus narrative by identifying Moses as the redeemer.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/4951.htm">misrah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a daughter of Asher<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Serah (3).<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">שֶׂ֫רַח</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, feminine</b></font> (compare Sabean proper name, masculine <font class="hebrew2">שרךְ</font> SabDenkm<sup>No. 20, 1. 1, and p. 72</sup>, <font class="hebrew2">שרחאל</font> Id.<sup>No. 13, 1. 2. 12,</sup> <font class="hebrew2">אלשרךְ</font> DHM<sup>Epigr.
