Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: The origin of the word טֶנֶא is uncertain, but it is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a specific type of container.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in Strong's Concordance is G596 (ἀγγεῖον, angeion), which also refers to a container or vessel, often used for holding liquids or other items. This Greek term, like טֶנֶא, emphasizes the practical and symbolic significance of containers in daily life and religious contexts.

Usage: The word טֶנֶא appears in the context of agricultural activities, where it is used to describe a basket for carrying produce. It is found in the Hebrew Bible in Deuteronomy 28:5 and Deuteronomy 28:17.

Context: The term טֶנֶא is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a basket, a common household and agricultural item in ancient Israel. In Deuteronomy 28:5, the basket is mentioned in the context of blessings: "Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl." This indicates the basket's role in daily sustenance and provision, symbolizing abundance and prosperity. Conversely, in Deuteronomy 28:17, the basket is mentioned in the context of curses: "Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl," highlighting the potential for scarcity and hardship. The basket, therefore, serves as a metaphor for the material well-being of the people, reflecting the blessings or curses contingent upon their obedience to God's commandments.
