• Strong's Greek Number 1275: διατελής (diatelēs) • meaning "continual" or "unceasing."

These Greek terms similarly convey the idea of continuity and permanence, reflecting the same thematic elements found in the Aramaic תְּדִירָא.

Usage: This Aramaic term is used in the context of describing something that is ongoing or perpetual. It is often employed in scriptural passages to emphasize the enduring nature of an action or state.

Context: The term תְּדִירָא appears in the Aramaic portions of the Hebrew Bible, particularly in the context of describing actions or states that are continuous or unceasing. In the Berean Standard Bible, this term is translated to convey the idea of constancy or permanence. The concept of תְּדִירָא is significant in understanding the nature of certain divine attributes or decrees, which are often described as eternal or unchanging. The use of this term underscores the theological emphasis on God's unending faithfulness and the perpetual nature of His covenant with His people. In the broader biblical narrative, the idea of permanence is contrasted with the temporal and fleeting nature of human endeavors, highlighting the enduring nature of divine promises and truths.
