Strong's Lexicon sason: Joy, gladness, exultation Original Word: שָׂשׂוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the root שׂוּשׂ (sus), which means "to exult" or "to rejoice." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5479 (chara): Joy, delight - G2167 (euphraino): To rejoice, make merry Usage: The Hebrew word "sason" conveys a sense of joy and gladness, often associated with celebration and exultation. It is used in the context of expressing a deep, heartfelt joy that is often communal and celebratory in nature. This joy is not merely an internal feeling but is often expressed outwardly through actions and communal gatherings. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, joy was a significant aspect of religious and communal life. Festivals, weddings, and religious ceremonies were occasions for expressing "sason." Joy was seen as a gift from God, a response to His blessings, and a reflection of His presence among His people. The Israelites often expressed joy through music, dance, and feasting, which were integral parts of their cultural and religious expressions.
