Strong's Lexicon bar: Son, heir, field, grain, pure Original Word: בַּר Word Origin: Derived from the root word בָּרַר (barar), meaning "to purify" or "to select." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5207 (huios): Son - G2818 (kleronomos): Heir Usage: The Hebrew word "bar" primarily means "son" or "heir," often used in the context of lineage or descent. It can also refer to "grain" or "field," indicating a sense of purity or something that is clean and unblemished. In some contexts, it conveys the idea of purity or cleanness, both physically and morally. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, lineage and heritage were of utmost importance, and the term "bar" was commonly used to denote a son or heir, signifying one's continuation of family legacy and inheritance. The agricultural aspect of the word, referring to grain or fields, reflects the agrarian society of ancient Israel, where farming and harvest were central to daily life and survival. The concept of purity was also significant in religious and social contexts, emphasizing the importance of being unblemished and set apart for God.
