Strong's Lexicon serok: Vine, tendril Original Word: שְׂרוֹךְ Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to intertwine or to twine Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of a vine is ἄμπελος (ampelos), Strong's Greek #288, which is used in the New Testament, particularly in John 15. Usage: The Hebrew word "serok" refers to a vine or tendril, often used metaphorically in the Bible to describe the growth and spread of Israel or the people of God. It signifies the idea of being intertwined or connected, much like the tendrils of a vine that cling and grow. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, vineyards were a common sight and an important part of the agricultural economy. The imagery of vines and vineyards is frequently used in the Bible to symbolize prosperity, blessing, and the relationship between God and His people. The vine was also a symbol of peace and abundance, as well as a representation of Israel itself.
