Strong's Lexicon lulaah: Loop Original Word: לֻלָאָה Word Origin: Derived from the root לול (lul), which can imply something that is looped or entwined. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "lulaah" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific term related to the Hebrew Tabernacle construction. However, the concept of joining or connecting can be related to Greek terms like σύνδεσμος (syndesmos - G4886), meaning a bond or connection. Usage: The term "lulaah" refers to a loop or ring, specifically used in the context of the construction of the Tabernacle in the wilderness. It describes the loops of blue fabric that were used to join the curtains of the Tabernacle together, ensuring that the structure was unified and complete. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Israelite context, the Tabernacle was a portable sanctuary that served as the dwelling place of God among His people during their journey through the wilderness. The construction of the Tabernacle was detailed and precise, as described in the book of Exodus. The use of loops (lulaah) was a practical solution for connecting the curtains, which were made of fine linen and blue, purple, and scarlet yarn. These loops were part of the intricate design that allowed the Tabernacle to be assembled and disassembled as the Israelites traveled. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originthe same as lulay, q.v.
