How translations render this word
Counts come from each version’s own published word-to-Strong’s tagging or interlinear alignment — an approximate guide to how each version renders this word, not a word-level alignment the data otherwise carries. Because each total is that version’s own tagged count, the per-version totals vary from one another and need not match the appearance or distinct-verse counts above. These counts may also differ from a printed concordance because Lemma counts each distinctly tagged rendering and does not collapse phrase taggings into a single head-word total. This is a fixed set of word-tagged versions (KJV, ASV, BSB, ULT) and does not change with the reading translation you choose elsewhere. Each version’s license is shown beside its name below (and on Sources).
BDB lists this Strong’s number as 2 distinct words (homographs). Each count above pools all of them and is not split by sense — see the Senses section below. A low-frequency rendering may belong to a different one of those words, not the primary meaning.

Jastrow Dictionary
A second Hebrew/Aramaic lexicon for comparison, covering Aramaic and post-biblical (Talmudic, Targumic, Midrashic) usage that the biblical-Hebrew BDB does not. Matched by lemma rather than by Strong’s number, so a lemma may carry more than one Jastrow headword (shown separately below), and the entries cover usage well beyond the Bible.
חָדַשׁ
- (b. h.) [to be bright,] to be new.
- 1. to renew, renovate, polish. Lev. R. s. 29 (ref. to בחדש, Ps. LXXXI, 4) תְּחַדְּשׁוּ מעשיכם ye shall polish (cleanse) your doings. Gen. R. s. 78, beg. (ref. to Lam. III, 23) אתה מְחַדְּשֵׁנוּ וכ׳ thou renewest our lives every morning; אתה מח׳ לבוקרן וכ׳ thou inspirest us with new life in the morning (rise to power) &c., v. בֹּקֶר; a. fr. e.g. Psalms 81:4
- 2. to commence anew, do again. R. Hash. 7ᵃ, a. e. (ref. to Num. XXVIII, 14) חַדֵּשׁ והבא וכ׳ commence a new account and offer T’rumah of the new produces. e.g. Numbers 28:14
- 3. to promulgate a new law, to establish a new interpretation of a Biblical law; to find a new point. Sabb. 104ᵃ, a. fr. (ref. to Lev. XXVI, 46) אין נביא רשאי לְחַדֵּשׁ וכ׳ (v. Rabb. D. S. a. l.) since the promulgation of these laws no prophet has a right to issue a new law. Y. Erub. V, 22ᶜ bot. it is called the New Gate, because there חִידְּשׁוּ וכ׳ (not חו׳) the Sof’rim instituted the interpretation (Halakhah); a. fr. e.g. Leviticus 26:46
- 1. to be renewed, to be established as a new interpretation (cmp. Lat. novellae); to be offered as a new point (דבר חדש). Y. Yeb. VIII, 9ᶜ top (ref. to I Chr. VIII, 9) שעל ידיה נִתְחַדְּשָׁה הלכה וכ׳ at her instance the new interpretation (of the law Deut. XXIII, 4) was established; Midr. Sam. ch. XXII; Ruth R. to II, 5 כבר נ׳ הלכה the law has been interpreted long before. Sot. 3ᵇ, a. fr. לא נשנית אלא בשביל דבר שנ׳ בה the section is repeated for the sake of a new point added. e.g. 1 Chronicles 8:9
- 2. to change turns. Yoma 26ᵃ משמרות מִתְחַדְּשׁוֹת the Temple attendants are relieved.
חָדָשׁ

Sifra introd. לידון בדבר ח׳ in order to be defined by a new point (not included in the general law); a. fr.—Esp. הֶחָ׳ or חָ׳ the new produces of the field not permitted for use before the Omer day (Lev. XXIII, 10—14). Kidd. I, 9 (37ᵃ) אף (מןּ) הח׳ also with the exception of the new produces (the law concerning which applies even to foreign countries). Ib. 39ᵃ תני ח׳ read ‘the new fruit’ (leaving out ‘also’). Dem. IV, 7 שלי ח׳ הוא mine is new fruit (not yet permitted); a. fr.—Pl. חֲדָשִׁים. Yoma II, 4 ח׳ לקטורת בֹּאוּ new men for offering incense (such as never before have performed that function), come and &c. Ib. ח׳ גם ישנים new men and also old ones (who have officiated before this). Lev. R. s. 2, end (ref. to Cant. VII, 14) ח׳ the later leaders, opp. to ישנים the patriarchs; a. fr.—Fem. חֲדָשָׁה. Lev. R. s. 13 תורה ח׳ a new law, expl. חִדּוּשׁ תורה a novel interpretation of the law (concerning slaughtering). Pesik. Baḥod., p. 102ᵃ פרוזדוגמא ח׳ a recent decree; a. fr. e.g. Leviticus 23:10
חֹדֶשׁ
- preced.)
- 1. new moon, i.e. the first appearance of the crescent. R. Hash. I, 9, a. e. מי שראה את הח׳ he who sees the new moon (when it was his duty to travel to the place of the Supreme Court to testify). Ib. יוצאין לעדות הח׳ they travel for the purpose of testifying to the sight of the new moon; a. fr.

Meg. 21ᵇ פרשת ר"ח the section of the Law read on the New Moon Day (Num. XXVIII, 1—15); a. fr.—Pl. חֳדָשִׁים. Ib. III, 4 בראשי ח׳ on New Moon Days. R. Hash. I, 3 על ששה ח׳ וכ׳ for the proclamation of six New Moon Days messengers are sent abroad. Keth. 60ᵃ שלשה ח׳ at an age of three months; a. fr. [Pesik. Baḥod., p. 154ᵇ ניטש מח׳ וכ׳, read חוֹרֶשׁ.—Y. Shebi. IV, 35ᵇ bot. בחדשי׳, read בחרשי׳, v. חוֹרֶשׁ.] e.g. Numbers 28:1

Forms in the corpus
The 84 distinct written forms H2320 takes in the Hebrew Bible, most frequent first — each parse links to that state’s occurrences in the concordance. Hebrew forms include their vowel points and cantillation, so a single lemma takes many written forms.
The 60 most common forms are shown; 24 rarer forms follow in the full concordance.
Same root — word family
Other BDB entries built from the same root as H2320, grouped by Strong’s listed origin. These share a root / origin per the lexicon — not necessarily a shared meaning. Each links to that word’s own entry.
Derives from
Shares the same root
Proper names from this root
People and places named from this root — a name, not an additional meaning of the word.
Compare all same-root words → 1 of the same-root words is a proper name (a person or place). They share a root, not necessarily a meaning.
Septuagint verse parallels
This word appears in 215 verses that also exist in the Greek Old Testament (Septuagint), out of the 224 Hebrew verses it occurs in. You can read those verses in Greek by switching the Old Testament edition to the Septuagint.
Read these verses in the Septuagint
- Genesis 7:11
- Exodus 12:2
- Leviticus 16:29
- Numbers 1:1
- Deuteronomy 1:3
- Joshua 4:19
- Judges 11:37
- 1 Samuel 6:1
- 2 Samuel 2:11
- 1 Kings 4:7
- 2 Kings 4:23
- 1 Chronicles 3:4
This is a verse-level parallel only — the same verses exist in both the Hebrew and Greek Old Testaments. No word-level Hebrew↔Greek correspondence is claimed: the data carries no such alignment, so no Greek word is shown as this Hebrew word’s translation. Coverage is not total — the Septuagint omits the deuterocanon and renumbers the Psalms, so some Hebrew verses have no direct Greek parallel.
