Strong's Lexicon qitson: Outer, external, extreme Original Word: קִיצוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the root קָצָה (qatsah), meaning "to cut off" or "to end." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1854 (ἔξω, exo) – meaning "outside" or "outer." - G206 (ἄκρος, akros) – meaning "extreme" or "outermost." Usage: The Hebrew word "qitson" is used to describe something that is on the outermost part or edge. It often refers to the outer areas or extremities of a physical space, such as the outer court of a temple or the extremities of a land. In a metaphorical sense, it can also denote something that is external or superficial. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of "outer" or "external" had significant implications, especially in religious contexts. The temple, for example, had distinct areas with varying degrees of holiness, and the outer courts were accessible to more people than the inner sanctum. This distinction between outer and inner spaces was not only physical but also symbolic of spiritual proximity to God.
