Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts is οἶκος (oikos), Strong's Greek 3624, which also means house or dwelling.

Usage: The term "biuthim" refers to physical structures or places where individuals or groups reside. It is used to denote homes, shelters, or any form of habitation. In a broader sense, it can also imply a sense of belonging or community within these dwellings.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, dwellings were central to family and community life. They were not only places of shelter but also spaces for worship, teaching, and hospitality. The construction and maintenance of one's dwelling were considered acts of stewardship and reflected one's status and role within the community. The concept of "biuthim" would have been understood as integral to the social and religious fabric of Israelite society.
