Strong's Lexicon tebul: Immersion, Dipping Original Word: טָבוּל Word Origin: Derived from the root verb טָבַל (taval), meaning "to dip" or "to immerse." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of immersion is βαπτίζω (baptizō), Strong's Greek #907, which means "to baptize" or "to immerse." Usage: The term "tebul" refers to the act of immersion or dipping, often in a ritualistic or ceremonial context. It is associated with purification processes, particularly in the context of religious rites and practices. The concept of immersion is significant in the Hebrew Bible as it symbolizes cleansing and preparation for holiness. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, immersion was a common practice for achieving ritual purity. This was especially important for priests and those who wished to participate in temple worship. The act of immersion was seen as a way to cleanse oneself from impurity, whether physical or spiritual. The practice of immersion laid the groundwork for later Jewish traditions of mikveh and influenced Christian baptismal practices.
