Strong's Lexicon Qibroth Hattaavah: Graves of Craving Original Word: קִבְרוֹת הַתַּאֲוָה Part of Speech: proper name, of a location Transliteration: Qibroth Hattaavah Pronunciation: kee-broth hat-ta-a-vah Phonetic Spelling: (kib-roth' hat-tah-av-aw') Definition: Graves of Craving Meaning: Kibroth-hat-Taavh Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words קֶבֶר (qeber, meaning "grave") and תַּאֲוָה (taavah, meaning "craving" or "lust"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Qibroth Hattaavah, as it is a specific Hebrew place name. However, the concept of craving or lust can be related to Greek words such as ἐπιθυμία (epithymia, Strong's G1939), meaning "desire" or "lust." Usage: Qibroth Hattaavah is a place name in the Hebrew Bible, specifically mentioned in the context of the Israelites' wilderness journey. It is known as the location where the Israelites, driven by their intense craving for meat, were struck by a severe plague as a divine judgment for their complaints and lack of faith. The name itself reflects the dual themes of death and unrestrained desire. Cultural and Historical Background: In the narrative of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt, Qibroth Hattaavah represents a significant moment of testing and failure. The Israelites, having been miraculously delivered from slavery, struggled with trust and contentment during their desert wanderings. Their demand for meat, despite God's provision of manna, highlights the tension between divine provision and human desire. This event underscores the challenges of faith and obedience faced by the Israelites in their covenant relationship with God.
