Strong's Lexicon tiach: Plaster, coating Original Word: טִיחַ Word Origin: Derived from the root verb טוּחַ (tuach), meaning "to coat" or "to plaster." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2868: Koniáō (κονιάω) - to whitewash, used in the New Testament to describe hypocritical behavior, as in Matthew 23:27. Usage: The term "tiach" refers to a coating or layer of plaster used in construction, particularly in the context of covering walls. It is often used metaphorically in the Bible to describe superficial or deceptive coverings that hide underlying issues. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, plaster was a common building material used to cover stone or mud-brick walls. It served both practical and aesthetic purposes, providing a smooth surface and protecting the structure from the elements. Plastering was an essential part of construction, symbolizing completion and readiness. In a spiritual sense, the use of plaster as a metaphor highlights the importance of integrity and authenticity, warning against superficiality and deceit.
