Topical Lexicon
Semantic Range and Narrative Texture

Strong’s Hebrew 1875, דָּרַשׁ, threads the Old Testament with the idea of “seeking” in its richest sense—intent, inquiry, investigation, dependence, worship, even judicial pursuit. The verb can be cognitive (“to inquire”), volitional (“to seek earnestly”), or forensic (“to require an account”). Each nuance reinforces that the God of Israel is personal, knowable, and willing to be found while also being the One who calls every deed to account.

Seeking the LORD

At the heart of Israel’s faith stands the summons to “seek the LORD” (darash YHWH). This is covenant language, connoting relational devotion rather than mere information gathering. Moses promises that exile will not be the end if the nation turns and “seek[s] the LORD” (Deuteronomy 4:29). David makes the path intensely personal: “The humble will hear and rejoice. Magnify the LORD with me… I sought the LORD, and He answered me” (Psalm 34:3-4). In the Chronicler’s history, national reform is measured by kings who “set their hearts to seek God” (2 Chronicles 11:16; 2 Chronicles 15:12-15) and by those who perversely “did not seek the LORD” (2 Chronicles 12:14; 2 Chronicles 16:12). The pattern culminates in the future hope of Zechariah 8:21 where nations will urge one another, “Let us go at once to seek the LORD of Hosts.”

Inquiry at the Sanctuary

The tabernacle and later the temple served as authorized venues for darash. Priests “sought” judgments from the Urim and Thummim (Deuteronomy 33:8-10). In Malachi 2:7 the priest is the one “people seek instruction from,” highlighting darash as expository service. The process of “inquiring of the LORD” before battle (Judges 20:27; 1 Samuel 23:2-4) models dependence rather than presumption. Conversely, Saul’s tragic arc is summarized: “He did not seek guidance from the LORD; therefore the LORD put him to death” (1 Chronicles 10:13-14).

Prophetic Research and Intercession

Prophets deploy darash both retrospectively and prospectively. They “seek out” covenant violations (Ezekiel 34:6-10) and “search” future salvation (1 Peter 1:10 cites their spirit-led inquiry, echoing darash’s investigative force). Daniel “understood from the Scriptures” and then “turned to the Lord God and pleaded with Him in prayer and petition” (Daniel 9:2-3); study and supplication interlock.

Judicial and Social Accountability

Darash also marks legal obligation. Bloodguilt must be “required” by thorough investigation (Deuteronomy 19:18-19; 2 Samuel 4:11). The righteous judge is “a God who searches hearts and minds” (Psalm 7:9), assuring the oppressed that injustice will not be overlooked. When Ezekiel denounces shepherds who exploit the flock, the Lord vows, “I will seek My sheep” (Ezekiel 34:11-16), pairing compassionate pursuit with judicial scrutiny.

Consequences of Seeking or Neglect

The chronicled kings provide a theology of cause and effect:

• Asa: “The land is still yours, for we have sought the LORD” (2 Chronicles 14:7).
• Uzziah: “As long as he sought the LORD, God gave him success” (2 Chronicles 26:5).
• Ahaziah: “He died… because he had sought help from Baal-zebub” (2 Kings 1:16).

Blessing flows where darash is directed to the LORD; judgment falls where it is redirected to idols or ignored altogether (Amos 5:4-6).

Corporate Worship and Liturgical Memory

Psalms employs darash to guide liturgy: “Seek His presence continually” (Psalm 105:4). The imperative energizes communal song, pilgrim feast, and personal lament. Psalm 119:10 intertwines Torah and pursuit: “With all my heart I have sought You; do not let me stray from Your commandments.” Scripture, prayer, and obedience converge.

Wisdom and Discipleship

In Proverbs, “those who seek Me early will find Me” (Proverbs 8:17) underlines that wisdom is available to disciplined hearts. Conversely, lazy or superficial inquiry leads to folly (Proverbs 1:28-29). Darash thus frames discipleship as sustained, diligent investigation of God’s revelation.

Messianic Trajectory

Isaiah foretells a righteous King who will “seek justice” and “decide with equity for the meek” (Isaiah 11:3-4). This anticipates Jesus Christ, who declares, “The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost” (Luke 19:10), translating darash’s Old Testament theology into incarnate action.

Continuation into New Covenant Ministry

Early believers embody darash in Acts 17:11 by “examining the Scriptures daily to see if these teachings were so,” illustrating that the New Testament community remains a seeking community. Pastors, teachers, and missionaries today are called to emulate Ezra, who “set his heart to study, practice, and teach the Law” (Ezra 7:10), fusing scholarship, obedience, and proclamation.

Practical Implications for the Local Church

1. Expository preaching answers the congregation’s implicit darash by opening the Word so that hearers “understand the meaning” (Nehemiah 8:8).
2. Intercessory prayer sessions mirror the throne-room inquiries of prophets and kings, expecting real guidance.
3. Church discipline must “investigate carefully” (Deuteronomy 19:18) to protect holiness and justice.
4. Evangelism invites unbelievers to “seek the LORD while He may be found” (Isaiah 55:6), assuring that sincere pursuit will meet gracious revelation in Christ.

Eschatological Assurance

The final vision promises that every hidden work will be exposed (Ecclesiastes 12:14). The Judge who “searcheth” (darash) guarantees consummate justice and consummate fellowship: “They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them” (Revelation 21:3), the ultimate fulfillment of every true quest.

Key Occurrence Clusters for Further Study

Genesis 25:22; Deuteronomy 4:29-30; 2 Samuel 21:1; 1 Kings 22:5-7; 2 Chronicles 15:12-13; Ezra 6:21; Nehemiah 8:9-13; Psalm 9:10; Psalm 24:6; Psalm 27:4; Proverbs 28:5; Isaiah 55:6; Jeremiah 29:13; Hosea 3:5; Zephaniah 2:3; Zechariah 8:21–22.

These texts collectively display the breadth of דָּרַשׁ—divine invitation, human responsibility, and the gracious promise that those who seek Him will find Him (Jeremiah 29:13).
