Strong's Lexicon sobe: Surrounding, circuit, round about Original Word: סֹבֶא Word Origin: From the root סָבַב (sabab), meaning "to turn" or "to go around." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2945 (kuklos) - meaning "circle" or "ring" - G4060 (perikeimai) - meaning "to lie around" or "to be surrounded" Usage: The Hebrew word "sobe" refers to something that encircles or surrounds. It is often used in the context of describing the perimeter or boundary of an area, such as a city or a camp. The term can also imply protection or enclosure, as something that encompasses or encircles. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, cities and camps were often fortified with walls or natural barriers for protection against enemies. The concept of "sobe" would have been familiar to the Israelites as it described the physical boundaries that provided security and defined their living spaces. The idea of being surrounded also carried spiritual connotations, as God's protection was often depicted as a surrounding presence.
