Strong's Lexicon basar: Flesh Original Word: בָּשָׂר Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be fresh Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - σάρξ (sarx) - Strong's Greek 4561, often used in the New Testament to denote flesh, both literally and metaphorically. Usage: The Hebrew word "basar" primarily refers to the physical flesh of humans and animals. It is used to describe the material substance of the body, distinguishing it from the spirit or soul. In a broader sense, "basar" can also refer to mankind or humanity as a whole, emphasizing the mortal and perishable nature of human beings. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, "basar" was a significant concept that underscored the distinction between the physical and spiritual realms. The term was often used in sacrificial contexts, where the flesh of animals was offered to God. It also highlighted the vulnerability and mortality of humans, contrasting with the eternal nature of God. Understanding "basar" is crucial for interpreting various laws and rituals in the Old Testament, particularly those related to purity, sacrifice, and covenant.
