Strong's Lexicon tebach: Slaughter, butchery Original Word: טֶבַח Word Origin: Derived from the root verb טָבַח (tabach), meaning "to slaughter" or "to butcher." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - σφαγή (sphagē) - Strong's Greek 4967: Refers to slaughter or sacrifice, often used in the context of sacrificial offerings or acts of judgment. Usage: The Hebrew word "tebach" primarily refers to the act of slaughtering, particularly in the context of butchering animals for food or sacrifice. It can also imply a more general sense of killing or massacre, often used in contexts of judgment or warfare. The term is used to describe both literal and metaphorical acts of slaughter, emphasizing the severity and finality of the action. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the act of slaughtering animals was a common and necessary practice for both sustenance and religious rituals. The process of slaughtering was often carried out by priests or designated individuals who were responsible for ensuring that the act was performed according to the laws and customs outlined in the Torah. The concept of "tebach" also extends to the idea of divine judgment, where God is depicted as executing justice through acts of destruction against the wicked.
