Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent concept can be found in terms like גָּבַל (gabal, Strong's H1379), which means "to border" or "to set bounds." Usage: The verb συνομορέω is used to describe the action of bordering or adjoining. It conveys the idea of two or more entities sharing a common boundary or being in close proximity. In a biblical context, it can refer to geographical regions or territories that are adjacent to one another. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient times, the concept of borders and adjoining territories was significant for defining the extent of a nation's influence and control. Borders were often marked by natural landmarks such as rivers or mountains, and they played a crucial role in the political and social interactions between neighboring peoples. Understanding the geographical context of biblical narratives can provide deeper insights into the relationships and conflicts described in the Scriptures.
