Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive rootCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1621 (ἐκκόπτω, ekkoptō): To cut out, cut off, or remove. This Greek term shares a similar sense of separation or removal, akin to the action of knocking off or out in the Hebrew context. Usage: The verb חָבַט (chavat) is used in the context of knocking or beating something out, often referring to the action of separating grain from its husk or removing olives from trees. Context: The Hebrew verb חָבַט (chavat) appears in the context of agricultural practices in ancient Israel. It is primarily used to describe the process of knocking or beating out grain or olives. This action was a common method for harvesting, where the produce was struck to separate it from the plant. The term is used in Deuteronomy 24:20, which provides instructions for harvesting olives: "When you beat the olives from your trees, do not go over the branches again. What remains will be for the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow." (BSB). This verse highlights the practice of leaving some produce for the less fortunate, reflecting the social and religious values of the time. The verb חָבַט (chavat) thus conveys both a physical action and a cultural practice of generosity and provision for the needy.
