Strong's Lexicon sum or sim: To put, place, set, appoint, establish Original Word: שׂוּם / שִׂים Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5087 (τίθημι, tithēmi): To put, place, lay, set - G2525 (καθίστημι, kathistēmi): To appoint, establish, set down Usage: The Hebrew verb "sum" or "sim" is a versatile term used extensively in the Old Testament. It primarily means to put, place, or set something in a particular position or condition. It can also imply appointing or establishing something or someone in a role or situation. This verb is often used in contexts where God or individuals are setting things in order, appointing leaders, or establishing laws and decrees. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the act of placing or setting something was significant, often symbolizing authority, intention, or purpose. For example, setting a stone as a memorial or appointing a leader were acts that carried deep meaning and were often accompanied by rituals or ceremonies. The use of "sum" or "sim" reflects the importance of intentionality and order in the Hebrew worldview, where actions were seen as extensions of divine or human will.
