Strong's Lexicon segid: To bow down, to worship Original Word: סְגִד Word Origin: Aramaic root, related to the Hebrew סָגַד (sagad), meaning "to bow down" or "to worship." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar contexts is προσκυνέω (proskuneo), Strong's Greek 4352, which also means "to worship" or "to bow down." Usage: The term "segid" is used in the context of bowing down or worshiping, often in reference to acts of reverence or submission before a deity or a king. It conveys a physical act of prostration, symbolizing humility and acknowledgment of authority or divinity. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, bowing down was a common practice to show respect and submission to higher authorities, whether divine or royal. This act was not merely a physical gesture but carried deep spiritual and social implications. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, bowing down is often associated with worship and reverence towards God, but it is also used in narratives involving foreign kings and idols, highlighting the tension between true worship and idolatry.
