OT Phrases:

The Word of Jehovah

21. dabar Yehovah (about 247 uses)

The phrase the word of the Lord, translated from two Hebrew words: dabar Jehovah, appears in the Old Testament frequently. Although it is also translated "as the LORD has spoken," all the bases basically have the same sense found in I Samuel 3:1 below:

And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision.

The phrase open vision means God’s revelation to His man or women. In this case there was an absence of His revelation because the man of God in charge of the temple was not walking with God. Because there was no revelation, "the word of the LORD" was rare and costly. It was precious. Hence, the word of the Lord refers to God's revelation to man. In Jeremiah and Ezekiel especially, dabar Jehovah often marks sections or chapters in the written revelation.

In the Greek of the New Testament there are two phrases, the logos of the God, referring to the entirety of the spoken, written, and incarnate word, and the rhema, or specific saying, of God. The Greek of the Old Testament, the Septuagint, is inconsistent. It uses the phrase, rhema kurios, 63 times for word of the LORD. Many times, however, the phrase logos kurios is used to translate dabar Jehovah, the word of the LORD. The phrase the word of Jehovah, dabar Jehovah refers to His revelation, and its authority, in operation. This phrase, dabar Jehovah, is often translated: "as the Lord has said." This could also be translated: "according to the word of the LORD." Dabar Jehovah is translated in a number of ways depending on the context.

Peh Yehovah

21a. Peh (6310) Yehovah 50 uses

Peh means mouth. Peh Yehovah, the mouth of the LORD, is most often translated the commandment of the LORD. Although the use of this figure of speech, condescensio, emphasizes the living nearness and absolute authority of the command as God's very own, peh is not used only of God's word given as revelation. It is commonly used of commands that have a permanent application, whether received directly from God by the spirit of whether it is received from one of God's ministers. While all peh Yehovah (the mouth of the LORD) was once revealed to some one, not all dabar are peh.
