ORIGINAL-LANGUAGE MAP

Which Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek words stand behind this KJV word?

These relationships come from exact verse + token-position mappings. We do not assume that one English spelling always equals one Strong's number. A single English token can also carry more than one source tag, so the Strong's-link total can exceed the number of English occurrences.

English meaning and historical usage.

Dictionary data is kept visibly separate from Scripture and from lexical Strong's data.

yea

YEA, adverb Ya.

1. Yes; a word that expresses affirmation or assent. Will you go? yea It sometimes introduces a subject, with the sense of indeed, verily, truly, it is so.

YEA, hath God said, ye shall not eat of every tree in the garden? Genesis 3:1.

Let your communication be yea yea; nay, nay. Matthew 5:37.

2. It sometimes enforces the sense of something preceding; not only so, but more.

Therein I do rejoice; yea and will rejoice. Philippians 1:18.

3. In Scripture, it is used to denote certainty, consistency, harmony, and stability.

All the promises of God in him are yea and in him are amen. 2 Corinthians 1:17.

[In this use, the word may be considered a noun.]

YEA is used only in the sacred and solemn style. [See Yes.]
