Strong's Lexicon qarsol: Ankle Original Word: קַרְסֹל Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be rounded Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "qarsol," the concept of the ankle or foot can be related to Greek terms such as "ποῦς" (pous, Strong's Greek 4228), meaning foot, which is used in the New Testament to describe movement or the spreading of the gospel. Usage: The Hebrew word "qarsol" refers specifically to the ankle, the joint connecting the foot with the leg. In the context of the Bible, it is used to describe the physical part of the body that provides support and mobility. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the body was often used metaphorically to describe spiritual truths or moral conditions. The ankle, being a crucial part of the body for movement and stability, could symbolize one's ability to stand firm or walk in the ways of God. The physical health and strength of the body were often seen as reflections of spiritual well-being. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom qaras Definition ankle NASB Translation feet (2).
