This is seen in passages like Galatians 6:1, "Brothers, if someone is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him with a spirit of gentleness."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew verb "teqan" is used to convey the action of setting something in order or making it right. It implies a process of correction or adjustment to achieve a desired state of order or correctness. In the context of the Bible, it often refers to the establishment of justice, righteousness, or proper conduct according to divine standards.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, the concept of setting things right was deeply embedded in the legal and moral framework. The Hebrew people were governed by laws that were intended to reflect God's holiness and justice. The act of "teqan" would have been understood as aligning with God's will and ensuring that one's actions were in accordance with His commandments. This concept was crucial in maintaining social order and religious purity.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/8626.htm">taqan</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to be in order<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>reestablished (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">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>establish <p>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/8626.htm">taqan</a>; to straighten up, i.e. Confirm -- establish. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/8626.htm">taqan</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>הָתְקְנַ֔ת התקנת hā·ṯə·qə·naṯ hatekeNat hāṯəqənaṯ<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/daniel/4-36.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Daniel 4:36</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/daniel/4.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">וְעַל־ מַלְכוּתִ֣י <b> הָתְקְנַ֔ת </b> וּרְב֥וּ יַתִּירָ֖ה</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/daniel/4.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> began seeking <span class="itali">me out; so I was reestablished</span> in my sovereignty,<br><a href="/kjvs/daniel/4.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> unto me; <span class="itali">and I was established</span> in my kingdom,<br><a href="/interlinear/daniel/4-36.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> me my sovereignty <span class="itali">was reestablished</span> greatness and surpassing<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_8627.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_8627.htm">Strong's Hebrew 8627<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/hatekenat_8627.htm">hā·ṯə·qə·naṯ — 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/8626.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="8626"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="8626" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/8628.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="8628"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="8628" /></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>
