Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G257 (alōn): Referring to a threshing floor.

- G248 (alōēthō): To thresh.

Usage: The term "dayish" refers to the process of threshing, which is the act of separating grain from the husks and straw. It is often associated with the threshing floor, a flat surface where this agricultural activity takes place. In biblical times, threshing was a critical step in the harvest process, ensuring that the grain was prepared for consumption or storage.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, threshing was a communal activity that took place after the harvest. The threshing floor was typically located on elevated ground to take advantage of the wind, which helped separate the chaff from the grain. Oxen or other animals would often be used to tread over the sheaves, or a threshing sledge might be employed. The process was labor-intensive and symbolized the provision and blessing of God, as a successful harvest was essential for survival.
