Strong's Lexicon Beten: Belly, womb, body Original Word: בֶּטֶן Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be hollow Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2836 (koilia) - belly, womb - G1064 (gastēr) - stomach, womb Usage: The Hebrew word "beten" primarily refers to the belly or womb. It is used in the Old Testament to describe the physical belly or stomach, as well as the womb, emphasizing the place of gestation and birth. The term can also metaphorically refer to the innermost part of a person, indicating deep emotions or desires. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the womb was considered a sacred place where life was formed and nurtured. The concept of the womb was often associated with God's creative power and blessing, as children were seen as a heritage from the Lord. The physical belly was also a symbol of sustenance and life, as it was the center of digestion and nourishment.
