Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2777 (κέλευσμα • keleusma): While not a direct translation, this Greek term refers to a command or shout, often used in a nautical context, which can metaphorically relate to the concept of a ship's deck where commands are issued. • G4768 (στρωμνή • strōmnē): This term refers to a bed or couch, which can metaphorically relate to a flat surface or structure, akin to a plank or deck. These Greek entries, while not direct translations, provide insight into the broader semantic field related to structural elements and their metaphorical uses in both Hebrew and Greek contexts. Usage: The term קֶרֶשׁ is primarily used in the context of the construction of the Tabernacle in the wilderness, where it describes the wooden planks that formed the framework of the sanctuary. It is also used metaphorically to describe the deck of a ship. Context: The Hebrew term קֶרֶשׁ (Qeresh) appears in the context of the construction of the Tabernacle, as detailed in the book of Exodus. These planks were integral to the structure, providing the necessary support and framework for the sacred tent. Each plank was made of acacia wood, overlaid with gold, and fitted with silver bases, as described in Exodus 26:15-30. The meticulous design and construction of these planks underscore the importance of the Tabernacle as a dwelling place for the Divine presence among the Israelites. In Exodus 26:15 (BSB), it is written: "You are to construct the frames of the tabernacle with acacia wood as uprights." This passage highlights the use of קֶרֶשׁ in the sacred architecture, emphasizing the craftsmanship and divine instructions given to Moses. The use of קֶרֶשׁ extends beyond the Tabernacle, as it can also refer to the deck of a ship, illustrating its broader application in ancient Hebrew culture. This dual usage reflects the versatility and importance of wooden planks in both sacred and secular contexts.
