Strong's Lexicon paraq: To tear away, to break off, to pluck off, to remove Original Word: פָרַק Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the concept of liberation or breaking free can be related to Greek terms such as λύω (luo - G3089), meaning to loosen or release. Usage: The Hebrew verb "paraq" primarily conveys the action of tearing away or removing something forcibly. It is often used in contexts where something is being taken off or separated, such as yokes from animals or burdens from people. The term can imply a sense of liberation or relief, as well as destruction or separation, depending on the context. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the imagery of removing a yoke was powerful, symbolizing freedom from oppression or servitude. Yokes were used to harness animals for labor, and breaking a yoke signified release from heavy burdens. This concept was deeply embedded in the agrarian society of the Israelites, where physical labor and servitude were common experiences.
