Berean Strong's Lexicon etsadah: Anklet, bracelet Original Word: אֶצְעָדָה Word Origin: Derived from the root אֶצֶד (etsed), which is not used in the Hebrew Bible but is related to the concept of binding or fastening. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "etsadah" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary. However, the concept of adornment can be related to Greek words such as κόσμος (kosmos - Strong's Greek 2889), which refers to order, arrangement, or adornment. Usage: The term "etsadah" refers to an ornamental band or chain worn around the ankle, commonly known as an anklet. In ancient times, such adornments were often used as decorative items, signifying beauty, wealth, or status. They could also be used in religious or cultural ceremonies. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, jewelry such as anklets was a common part of a woman's attire. These items were often made of precious metals and stones, indicating the wearer's social status or wealth. Anklets could also have symbolic meanings, possibly related to protection or fertility. In some cultures, the sound of anklets was believed to ward off evil spirits.
