H695 ʼereb

אֶרֶב

eh'-reb

ambush

Looking for Greek G695 argyrokópos? It has the same number in Strong's Greek lexicon but is a different word, not a translation of H695. Strong's numbering starts again for each language.

ʼereb appears twice in Scripture, in Job 37:8 and Job 38:40. In the Doxa app, open each of these verses, keep your notes on them, and ask Doxa Engage how it connects to what God has said to you.
