Strong's Lexicon labibah or lebibah: Cake, Pancake Original Word: לָבִיבָה Word Origin: Derived from the root לֵב (leb), meaning "heart" or "inner man." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "lebibah" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew cultural term. However, the general concept of bread or cakes can be related to Greek terms like ἄρτος (artos), meaning "bread." Usage: The term "lebibah" refers to a type of cake or pancake, often made from flour and oil. It is used in the context of food preparation and consumption, typically as a simple, flat bread-like food item. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, bread and cakes were staple foods, often made from wheat or barley flour. These cakes could be baked on a griddle or in an oven and were sometimes sweetened with honey or other ingredients. The simplicity of such food items reflects the agrarian lifestyle and the dietary customs of the time. Cakes like "lebibah" were common in daily meals and also used in religious offerings.
