Strong's Lexicon bad: Linen, alone, apart Original Word: בּד Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be separate Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1031: λινοῦς (linous) - referring to linen - G3441: μόνος (monos) - meaning alone or only Usage: The Hebrew word "בַּד" (bad) primarily refers to linen, a fabric made from flax, which was commonly used in ancient Israel for clothing, especially for priestly garments. It also conveys the idea of being alone or apart, emphasizing separation or distinctiveness. Cultural and Historical Background: Linen was a significant textile in ancient Israel, valued for its quality and purity. It was often associated with holiness and used in sacred contexts, such as the garments of the priests and the tabernacle. The use of linen symbolized purity and separation from common or profane use, reflecting the holiness required in worship and service to God.
