G1457 Hebrew Source (from --hebrew-source)¶

Primary source: H2596 (chanak) -- "to dedicate, inaugurate, train up" (PMI: 11.30)
This is the root of "Hanukkah" (Feast of Dedication, Jhn 10:22)
Used for dedicating houses (Deut 20:5), the temple (1 Ki 8:63), the altar (2 Chr 7:9)
Secondary: H2318 (chadash) -- "to be new, renew" (PMI: 9.56)
Used for renewing the kingdom (1 Sam 11:14), renewing the altar (2 Chr 15:8)
The combination of chanak and chadash in the LXX background confirms enkainizo carries both inauguration/dedication AND renewal/making-new semantics
