Berean Strong's Lexicon puwrah: Winepress Original Word: פּוּרָה Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: puwrah Pronunciation: poo-raw' Phonetic Spelling: (poo-raw') Definition: Winepress Meaning: a wine-press Word Origin: Derived from the root פּוּר (pur), which means "to crush" or "to break." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3025 (ληνός, lenos) - Refers to a winepress in the New Testament, used in contexts such as the parable of the wicked tenants (Matthew 21:33). Usage: The term "puwrah" refers to a winepress, a device or structure used in ancient times for crushing grapes to extract juice for wine production. It is a symbol of judgment and harvest in biblical literature, often used metaphorically to describe God's judgment upon nations or peoples. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, wine production was a significant agricultural activity. The winepress was an essential tool in this process, typically consisting of a large, flat surface where grapes were trodden by foot, and a collection vat where the juice would flow. Winepresses were often hewn out of rock or constructed from wood and stone. The imagery of the winepress is frequently used in the Bible to depict divine judgment, as the crushing of grapes parallels the execution of justice.
