Strong's Lexicon sederah: Order, Arrangement Original Word: שְׂדֵרָה Word Origin: Derived from the root סדר (s-d-r), meaning "to arrange" or "to order." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of order is τάξις (taxis), Strong's Greek #5010, which also denotes arrangement or order, particularly in a ceremonial or hierarchical context. Usage: The term "sederah" refers to an arrangement or order, often used in the context of a sequence or a structured series. In the Hebrew Bible, it can imply a divinely ordained order or a humanly established sequence, reflecting the importance of structure and organization in both spiritual and communal life. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, order and structure were vital for both religious practices and daily life. The concept of "seder" is central to Jewish tradition, most notably in the Passover Seder, which is a ritual meal with a specific order of service. This reflects a broader cultural emphasis on maintaining order as a reflection of divine creation and providence.
