Berean Strong's Lexicon Pasak: To pass over, to spare Original Word: פסח Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3957 (Pascha): Refers to the Passover, the festival, and the lamb sacrificed during the festival. - G3928 (Parerchomai): To pass by or pass over, used in contexts of passing by or overlooking. Usage: The Hebrew verb "pasak" primarily means "to pass over" or "to spare." It is most famously associated with the Passover event in the book of Exodus, where God "passed over" the houses of the Israelites during the final plague on Egypt, sparing them from the death of the firstborn. This act of divine mercy and deliverance is central to the understanding of "pasak." Cultural and Historical Background: The term "pasak" is deeply embedded in the Jewish tradition of Passover (Pesach), a festival commemorating the Israelites' exodus from Egypt and their liberation from slavery. The event is a pivotal moment in Jewish history, symbolizing God's protection and faithfulness. The Passover meal, or Seder, includes the retelling of this story, emphasizing themes of redemption and divine intervention.
