Part of Speech: Noun Masculine
Transliteration: gader
Pronunciation: gah-DAIR
Phonetic Spelling: (gaw-dare')

Word Origin: From the root verb גָּדַר (gadar), meaning "to wall in" or "to build a wall."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "gader," the concept of a wall or barrier can be related to Greek terms such as "τείχος" (teichos, Strong's G5038), meaning "wall."

Usage: The Hebrew word "gader" primarily refers to a physical structure used as a boundary or protective barrier. It is often used in the context of a wall or fence that encloses a vineyard, field, or city. The term can also metaphorically imply protection or separation.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, walls and fences were crucial for protection against wild animals and invaders. They marked property boundaries and safeguarded agricultural produce. The construction of walls was a significant aspect of city planning and defense, reflecting the community's strength and security. In a spiritual sense, walls symbolized God's protection and the separation of His people from pagan practices.
