Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1199 (δέσμος, desmos): Refers to a band or bond, often used in the New Testament to describe chains or imprisonment. • G2218 (ζυγός, zygos): A yoke or burden, symbolizing something that binds or joins together. • G2438 (ἱμάς, himas): A thong or strap, used for binding. • G2440 (ἱμάτιον, himation): A garment or cloak, which can be wrapped or bound around the body. • G3507 (νεφέλη, nephele): A cloud, often used metaphorically to describe something that envelops or surrounds. • G4120 (πλεῖον, pleion): More, greater, or fuller, sometimes used in contexts of abundance or fullness, akin to the idea of being filled or intertwined. In summary, עֲבֹת (Avoth) is a multifaceted term in the Hebrew Bible that conveys the idea of intertwining, whether in physical objects like cords and wreaths or in metaphorical expressions of unity and strength. Its Greek counterparts in the Strong's Concordance reflect similar themes of binding, joining, and enveloping. Usage: The word עֲבֹת is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe various objects that are intertwined or bound together. It appears in contexts that involve physical binding or symbolic representations of unity and strength. Context: • The term עֲבֹת is used in several passages in the Hebrew Bible, often in a metaphorical sense to describe strength and unity. For example, in Psalm 118:27, it is used in the context of binding the festival sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar, symbolizing dedication and commitment. • In Exodus 28:14, עֲבֹת refers to chains of pure gold, twisted like cords, used in the priestly garments, signifying the beauty and intricacy of the sacred attire. • The word also appears in the context of nature, as in Isaiah 5:18, where it metaphorically describes those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, illustrating the entanglement of sin. • The concept of intertwining is central to the understanding of עֲבֹת, whether it is used to describe physical objects or abstract ideas.
