Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive particle Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G3316 (μεσίτης, mesitēs): This Greek term means "mediator" or "intermediary," reflecting a role or position between two parties. • G3319 (μέσος, mesos): This Greek word means "middle" or "in the midst," often used to describe a position or location between two points or entities. The Hebrew term "bên" is foundational in understanding the biblical concepts of separation, distinction, and mediation, playing a crucial role in the theological and ethical teachings of the Old Testament. Usage: The term "bên" is frequently used in the Hebrew Bible to indicate spatial, temporal, or logical separation or distinction. It often appears in contexts where a clear demarcation or differentiation is being made, such as between people, places, times, or concepts. Context: • The Hebrew particle "bên" is a versatile term used extensively throughout the Old Testament. It serves as a preposition that conveys the idea of separation or distinction. For example, in Genesis 1:4, "God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness," the word "bên" is used to describe the separation between light and darkness. • In a relational context, "bên" can denote the distinction between individuals or groups, as seen in Exodus 11:7, "But among the Israelites, not even a dog will bark at man or beast, so that you may know that the LORD makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel." • The term is also used in legal and ethical contexts to differentiate between right and wrong, clean and unclean, or holy and profane. Leviticus 10:10 states, "You must distinguish between the holy and the common, between the unclean and the clean." • "Bên" can also indicate a temporal separation, as in Genesis 1:14, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night." • The word is integral in expressing the concept of choice or decision-making, as seen in Joshua 24:15, "But if it is unpleasing in your sight to serve the LORD, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve."
