This entry provides a comprehensive understanding of the term נַעַל (na'al) within its biblical and cultural context, highlighting its practical, symbolic, and ritual significance in the Hebrew Scriptures. Usage: The word נַעַל is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a sandal or slipper, often in contexts related to travel, ritual, or symbolic acts. It appears in various passages, illustrating both practical and metaphorical uses. Context: • Cultural Context: In ancient Near Eastern culture, sandals were essential for protection against the harsh terrain and climate. They were typically made from leather and were a sign of readiness and mobility. Removing one's sandals was a sign of reverence or entering a holy space, as seen in Exodus 3:5 when God instructs Moses to remove his sandals on holy ground. • Biblical References: • Exodus 3:5 (BSB): "Do not come any closer," God said. "Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground." • Deuteronomy 25:9 (BSB): "Then his brother's wife shall go up to him in the presence of the elders, remove his sandal from his foot, spit in his face, and declare, 'This is what is done to the man who will not build up his brother's house.'" • Joshua 5:15 (BSB): "The Commander of the LORD's army replied, 'Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy.' And Joshua did so." • Symbolic Significance: Sandals in the Bible often symbolize readiness and preparation, as well as humility and respect in the presence of the divine. The act of removing sandals can signify entering a sacred space or participating in a covenantal act. • Ritual and Legal Contexts: The removal of sandals is also part of certain legal and ritual practices, such as the levirate marriage ceremony described in Deuteronomy 25:9, where the removal of a sandal signifies the renunciation of a duty or right.
