Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "dethe," the concept of slopes or descents can be related to Greek terms like "κατάβασις" (katabasis), meaning a descent or going down.

Usage: The term "dethe" refers to a slope or descent, often used in the context of geographical features such as hills or valleys. It conveys the idea of a downward incline or a place where the land falls away.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the landscape was characterized by a variety of geographical features, including hills, valleys, and slopes. These features were significant in the daily life and movement of people, as well as in military strategies and agricultural practices. The concept of a slope or descent would have been familiar to the Israelites, who often traveled by foot and relied on the land for sustenance.
