6888. Tsererah
Strong's Lexicon
Tsererah: Bundle, parcel

Original Word: צְרֵרָה
Part of Speech: Proper Name Location
Transliteration: Tsrerah
Pronunciation: tse-re-RAH
Phonetic Spelling: (tser-ay-raw')
Definition: Bundle, parcel
Meaning: Tsererah for, Tseredah

Word Origin: Derived from the root צָרַר (tsarar), meaning "to bind" or "to tie up."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of binding or securing can be related to Greek words such as δεσμεύω (desmeuō - to bind) or συνάγω (synagō - to gather together).

Usage: Tsererah refers to a small bundle or parcel, often used metaphorically to describe something that is bound together or collected. In biblical contexts, it can symbolize the gathering of one's life or deeds, often in a protective or significant manner.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the act of binding or bundling was a common practice for securing valuables or important items. This concept extended metaphorically to the idea of one's life or soul being "bound" in a bundle, signifying protection or preservation by God. The imagery of bundling was familiar to the Israelites, who lived in a society where agricultural and pastoral activities were central, and bundling was a practical daily task.
