Strong's Lexicon Phalek: Peleg Original Word: Φαλέκ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew name פֶּלֶג (Peleg) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: H6389 (פֶּלֶג, Peleg) Usage: The name "Peleg" is traditionally understood to mean "division" or "split." In the biblical context, Peleg is noted for the division of the earth, which is often interpreted as a significant event during his lifetime. This division is sometimes associated with the dispersion of peoples and languages at the Tower of Babel. Cultural and Historical Background: Peleg is a descendant of Shem, one of Noah's sons, and is part of the genealogical line leading to Abraham. His mention in the genealogies highlights the transition from the post-flood world to the establishment of nations and languages. The era of Peleg is marked by significant changes in human civilization, possibly reflecting the spread of humanity across the earth and the diversification of cultures and languages.
