Berean Strong's Lexicon tsrowr: Bundle, parcel, pouch, bag Original Word: צְרוֹר Word Origin: From the root verb צָרַר (tsarar), meaning "to bind" or "to tie up." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "tsrowr," the concept of a bundle or pouch can be related to Greek terms like "δέμας" (demas) meaning "bundle" or "σακίδιον" (sakidion) meaning "small bag." Usage: The Hebrew word "tsrowr" primarily refers to a small bundle or parcel, often used to describe a collection of items tied or bound together. It can also denote a pouch or bag used for carrying valuables or personal items. The term conveys the idea of something being gathered and secured, often for protection or safekeeping. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, including Israel, it was common to carry items in small bundles or pouches. These were often made of cloth or leather and used to store money, spices, or other valuable items. The concept of binding or bundling was significant in a society where travel and trade were prevalent, and securing one's possessions was essential.
