Strong's Lexicon Tsits: Blossom, flower, plate, diadem Original Word: צִיץ Word Origin: From the root צוץ (tsuts), meaning "to blossom" or "to shine." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's Greek 2842 (koinonia): While not a direct translation, the concept of holiness and dedication in the context of the high priest's diadem can be related to the Greek idea of fellowship or communion with God. - Strong's Greek 4735 (stephanos): Refers to a crown or wreath, often used metaphorically in the New Testament to describe rewards or honor. Usage: The Hebrew word "tsits" primarily refers to a blossom or flower, symbolizing beauty and transience. It is also used to describe a shining plate or diadem, particularly in the context of the high priest's attire. The term conveys both the idea of something that is visually striking and something that is temporary or fleeting. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the imagery of flowers and blossoms was often used to convey the beauty and brevity of life. The high priest's golden plate, or diadem, inscribed with "Holy to the LORD," was a significant part of the priestly garments, symbolizing holiness and dedication to God. This plate was worn on the forehead, signifying the high priest's role as a mediator between God and the people.
