Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to tend or cultivate. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G288 (amphora): A large jar or container, often used for storing wine, which would be produced from a vineyard. • G290 (ampelos): A vine, particularly a grapevine, directly related to the concept of a vineyard. • G2933 (kleronomia): Inheritance, which can include vineyards as part of one's heritage or estate. • G5564 (chorion): A place or piece of land, which can include a vineyard as part of a larger estate or property. These Greek terms, while not direct translations, relate to the broader context of vineyards and their significance in both Hebrew and Greek cultures. Usage: The term כֶּרֶם is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a vineyard, a place where grapevines are cultivated. It is often associated with agricultural practices and symbolizes abundance, blessing, and sometimes judgment. Context: The Hebrew word כֶּרֶם (kerem) is frequently encountered in the Old Testament, where it primarily denotes a vineyard. Vineyards were significant in ancient Israelite society, both economically and symbolically. They were a source of wine, an important commodity, and a symbol of prosperity and divine blessing. The cultivation of vineyards required careful attention and labor, reflecting the agrarian lifestyle of the Israelites. In the biblical narrative, vineyards are often used metaphorically. For instance, in Isaiah 5:1-7, the vineyard represents the house of Israel, and the imagery is used to convey God's disappointment with His people's unfaithfulness. Similarly, in the Song of Solomon, the vineyard is a symbol of love and beauty. The concept of a vineyard also appears in legal contexts, such as in the laws concerning gleaning (Leviticus 19:10) and the prohibition against planting different kinds of seeds in a vineyard (Deuteronomy 22:9). These laws highlight the importance of maintaining purity and order in agricultural practices. In the Berean Standard Bible, the term is used in various contexts, illustrating both literal and figurative meanings. For example, in Genesis 9:20, Noah is described as a man of the soil who planted a vineyard. In Proverbs 24:30-31, the neglected vineyard serves as a warning against laziness.
