After the "word" the other day, I decided to google the word anawim. [I had looked it up in the dictionary but it wasn't there.] Anawim is a Hebrew word that means "the poor who depend on the Lord for deliverance." It's not in my bible, but in some versions, Psalm 37:11 says "The anawim will inherit the earth."
Just in case you were wondering.
Thanks, I was wondering what it meant. I too looked it up in the dictionary and couldn't find it. Very interesting considering I work with the poor!
ReplyDeleteEven my mother was wondering what it meant. It's funny,but while I was googling it I came across a site called " Mary's Anawim " and I am going to check it out. I read your post today, it was very moving. They are blessed to have you!
