Strong's Lexicon Tseboim: Tseboim, Zeboim Original Word: צְבֹעִים Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root צָבַע (tsava), meaning "to dip" or "to dye," possibly referring to the colorful or variegated nature of the area. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Tseboim in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible. Usage: Tseboim refers to one of the cities in the plain of Jordan, which was destroyed along with Sodom and Gomorrah. It is often mentioned in the context of divine judgment and serves as a symbol of God's wrath against sin. Cultural and Historical Background: Tseboim was one of the five cities of the plain, including Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, known for their wickedness and subsequent destruction by divine intervention. The cities were located in the region of the Dead Sea, an area known for its fertile land before the destruction. The account of these cities serves as a moral and theological lesson in the Hebrew Bible, emphasizing the consequences of sin and the importance of righteousness.
