Strong's Lexicon shalal: Spoil, Plunder, Booty Original Word: שָׁלָל Word Origin: Derived from the root verb שָׁלַל (shalal), meaning "to plunder" or "to spoil." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4661 (skulon): Refers to spoils or booty, similar to the Hebrew "shalal." - G4812 (sulagogeo): To carry off as spoil, plunder. Usage: The Hebrew word "shalal" refers to goods or possessions taken by force, typically in the context of war or conflict. It denotes the act of seizing or taking spoils from a defeated enemy. In the Old Testament, "shalal" is often used to describe the wealth, livestock, and goods captured by the Israelites or other nations during military conquests. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, including Israel, the concept of "shalal" was a common aspect of warfare. Victorious armies would claim the possessions of the defeated as a reward for their triumph. This practice was not only a means of wealth acquisition but also a demonstration of power and dominance. The distribution of "shalal" among soldiers was often regulated by leaders, as seen in various biblical accounts.
