Strong's Lexicon athon: Donkey, specifically a female donkey Original Word: אָתוֹן Word Origin: From an unused root meaning to be patient or slow Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3688 (onos): The Greek equivalent for donkey, used in the New Testament, such as in the account of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem (Matthew 21:5). Usage: The Hebrew word "athon" refers to a female donkey. In the ancient Near Eastern context, donkeys were valuable animals used for transportation, carrying loads, and agricultural work. The term "athon" is used in the Bible to denote the domesticated animal known for its endurance and patience. Cultural and Historical Background: In biblical times, donkeys were essential to daily life and commerce. They were considered reliable and sturdy animals, capable of navigating difficult terrain. Donkeys were often used by common people and were a symbol of humility and service. In contrast to horses, which were associated with war and power, donkeys represented peace and humility. This cultural symbolism is evident in the biblical narrative, where donkeys are often associated with key figures and events.
