Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1939 (ἐπιθυμία, epithymia): Often translated as "desire" or "lust," this term can relate to the longing for beauty or adornment. • G2889 (κόσμος, kosmos): This word means "world" or "order," but it can also refer to adornment or decoration, as in the arrangement of the universe or the beauty of creation. • G4749 (στολή, stole): Refers to a long robe or garment, often used in contexts of ceremonial or formal attire, similar to the concept of finery. • G78 (ἀσέλγεια, aselgeia): While primarily meaning "licentiousness" or "wantonness," it can imply an excessive or improper desire for adornment or luxury. These Greek terms, while not direct translations, share thematic connections with the Hebrew concept of adornment and the broader biblical discourse on beauty and spiritual significance. Usage: The word עֲדִי (adi) is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote items of adornment or decoration, often associated with beauty and splendor. It can refer to clothing, jewelry, or other decorative items that are worn to enhance one's appearance. Context: • The term עֲדִי (adi) appears in several contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often highlighting the concept of beauty and adornment. It is used to describe the finery or ornamental attire that individuals wear, particularly in contexts of celebration or ceremonial occasions. • In Exodus 33:4-6, the Israelites are instructed to remove their ornaments (עֲדִי) as a sign of repentance and humility before God. This passage underscores the cultural significance of adornment as a symbol of status and beauty, which is set aside in moments of contrition. • The use of עֲדִי (adi) in the prophetic literature often carries a metaphorical meaning, symbolizing the spiritual state of the people. For example, in Isaiah 61:10, the prophet speaks of being clothed with garments of salvation and a robe of righteousness, likening it to a bridegroom adorned with a headstall (עֲדִי) and a bride with her jewels. • The concept of adornment in the biblical text often serves as a metaphor for spiritual beauty and the relationship between God and His people, where physical adornment reflects inner spiritual truths.
