Is love only about feeling good and having emotions? Is love just giving to the poor and helping the needy? Or, does it involve more? ’ahab_a¯h (ahavah): A feminine noun meaning love. The word often signifies a powerful, intimate love between a man and a woman (Gen_
29:20; Son_
2:4-5, Son_
2:7); love between friends (2Sa_
1:26); God's love for His people (Isa_
63:9; Hos_
3:1). Frequently, it is associated with forming a covenant, which enjoins loyalty (Deu_
7:8). When used in an abstract way, the word designates a desirable personal quality, which connotes affection and faithfulness (Pro_
15:17; Pro_
17:9). (The Complete Word Study Dictionary) In this episode, in addition to explaining what Bible reveals about love, I will explain why it has been so long since I broadcasted and why I will do the best I can to give you a weekly broadcast for now on.
