Looking for Greek G5153 trischílioi? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H5153. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.
nâchûwsh appears once in Scripture, in Job 6:12. In the Doxa app, open that verse, keep your notes on it, and ask Doxa Engage how it connects to what God has said to you.
Definition
coppery, i.e. (figuratively) hard
In the King James Version
of brass.
Derivation
apparently passive participle of H5172 (נָחַשׁ) (perhaps in the sense of ringing), i.e. bell-metal; or from the red color of the throat of a serpent (H5175 (נָחָשׁ), as denominative) when hissing);
Appears 1 time in Scripture
“Is my strength like that of stone, or my flesh made of bronze?”
