Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greco-Roman world, binding was a common practice for securing prisoners or slaves, ensuring they could not escape.

In Jewish tradition, binding and loosing were terms used by rabbis to denote the authority to declare what was permitted or forbidden according to the law.
