Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for שָׁרָה in the Strong's Greek concordance.

Usage: The term שָׁרָה is used in the context of describing a fortified place, often referring to a structure or location that has been strengthened to provide protection against enemies. Context: The Hebrew word שָׁרָה (sharah) is associated with the concept of fortification, indicating a place that has been fortified for defense purposes. In ancient times, fortifications were crucial for the protection of cities and settlements against invasions and attacks. The term is not frequently found in the Hebrew Bible, suggesting that it may have been used in specific contexts or texts that have not been preserved in the canonical scriptures. The idea of fortification is significant in biblical narratives, as many cities in the ancient Near East, including those mentioned in the Bible, were known for their strong defensive structures, such as walls and towers. These fortifications were often seen as symbols of strength and security, providing a refuge for inhabitants during times of conflict.
