 And we're back for season 2! This season we're coming the Fruit of the Spirit... but in Hebrew! The first fruit listed in Galatians 5:22-23 is Love. In this episode We sit down to discuss the Hebrew understanding of the fruit of the spirit, specifically love, or Chesed. There are many words that can be used, but based on our study, chesed is the best one that fits. Also referenced in this episode is C.S. Lewis's book The Four Loves. Find it here on Amazon. Chesed (חֶסֶד) Strongs translates חֶסֶד as: mercy (149x), kindness (40x), lovingkindness (30x), goodness (12x), kindly (5x), merciful (4x), favour (3x), good (1x), goodliness (1x), pity (1x), reproach (1x), wicked thing (1x)Strongs concordance is usually a good place to start to investigate a basic understanding of a word, because it is available for free from sites like BlueLetterBible.org. It’s not foolproof, as it is based off of the King James Bible, and manuscripts available at the time of its compiling Definitions: Strongs (Strong, 2022): goodness, kindness, faithfulnessa reproach, shameHirsch (Clark, 1999): Devote oneself entirely; Give oneself to needsBeing selfless, shaming, sinful devotion, stork sharing preyLXX translates chesed at least 10 different ways, making it difficult to trace chesed into the New Covenant writings. (But we’ll find it, with God’s help) Gematria number: ד ס ח חסד 4 60 8 72 What is Gematria? In simple terms it is an alphanumeric code, where the 1st letter of the alphabet equals 1, the second letter equals 2, etc. See the graphic on right.Evidence of this type of code can be found in some form since before the time of David, so it is reasonable to suspect that it is encoded into the language. Much of the specific meaning of this encoding has either been lost or is muddied by mysticism and new-age. Using it as a Biblical hermeneutic is not generally recommended but in some cases, it can help us tie concepts together. (More on this later) Usage and lessons of the word from Genesis: Some consider Chesed not to be translatable into English by word or concept but we’re going to try anyway.First usage is in Genesis 19:19Lot expresses his thankfulness to the visitors that they had warned him of the coming doom instead of allowing him to perish with the rest of the people. This teaches us that chesed involves unmerited kindness Next we see Abraham use the word when he is recounting how he asked his wife to deceive on his behalf: Genesis 20:13This suggests that chesed is related to a benefit to one and a cost to the other. Her act of deception was for the purpose of Abraham’s well-being. Next Abraham reminds his servant of his own chesed towards the servant: Genesis 21:23This teaches us that chesed invites faithful service from the recipient. Next, Abraham’s servant repeatedly speaks of God’s chesed for Abraham, and invites the family of Nahor to do the same: Genesis 24:12-14, 24:49This teaches us that human beings are invited to imitate God by having chesed for those for whom He has chesed. In the Joseph story, we see that God has chesed for him and prospers his work, and that he asks the fellow prisoners to show him chesed by remembering him before pharoah, and asks his brothers to show him chesed by taking his bones with them when they eventually leave Egypt. Genesis 39:21, 40:14, 47:29 Checkpoint: In most of these stories so far, we have seen that chesed is linked to covenants, not necessarily to “love” of “affection”, and yet we often see chesed translated as “steadfast-love”. As we move into Exodus, we see chesed become more than just an interaction between God and humans, but as a key component of who He is.In Exodus we find that the reason God delivers Israel al all is because of His chesed, and we find that chesed is one of God’s self-proclaimed 13 attributes: Exodus 15:13, 34:6, 7aGod was willing to let His reputation rest squarely on the shoulders of a misfit nation who regularly forgot Him and had their heads turned by any of the latest and greatest gods they encountered. Over ¾ of the occasions that chesed is used, it is describing God’s relationship to humanity (Schlimm, 2018, p. 125)By the time David started writing psalms, he had about a thousand of years of history to prove that God maintained chesed for His people. It is for this reason that David continually appealed to God’s chesed: Psalm 6:5, 13:6, 23:6 Complicated passage to note: One of the reasons chesed is difficult to translate is a verse in Exodus:“If a man takes his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and sees her nakedness, and she his, it is chesed. They are to be cut off in the sight of the children of their people, for he has uncovered his sister’s nakedness, and will bear his iniquity.” Leviticus 20:17Our discomfort with this usage of chesed can be lessened if we remember that even Lot recognized that chesed was unreasonably kind, ...
