Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct one-to-one correspondence between Strong's Hebrew Number 2683 and a specific Greek entry. However, the concept of the bosom in the New Testament is often represented by the Greek word κόλπος (kolpos), which is Strong's Greek Number 2859. This term is used in similar contexts to describe the chest or bosom, particularly in passages like John 1:18, where it refers to the intimate relationship between the Father and the Son. Usage: The term חֵצֶן is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote the bosom or chest area, often symbolizing intimacy, care, or protection. It is a figurative expression for closeness or affection. Context: The Hebrew word חֵצֶן (chêtzen) appears in the context of describing the bosom, a part of the body that signifies closeness and affection. In ancient Hebrew culture, the bosom was often seen as a place of safety and warmth, where one might hold a child or a loved one. This term is used metaphorically in the Scriptures to convey the idea of being held close or cherished. In the Berean Standard Bible, the concept of the bosom is illustrated in various passages, often highlighting the intimate relationship between individuals or between God and His people. For example, the bosom is depicted as a place of comfort and security, where one might find solace and love. The imagery of the bosom is also used to describe the relationship between God and His followers, emphasizing the nurturing and protective nature of God's love. This metaphorical use underscores the deep connection and care that God extends to His people, inviting them to rest in His embrace.
