Strong's Lexicon tene: Basket Original Word: טֶנֶא Word Origin: From an unused root meaning to weave or contain Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "tene," the concept of baskets is present in the New Testament, such as in the feeding of the 5,000, where the Greek word "kophinos" (Strong's Greek 2894) is used to describe the baskets used to collect leftover food. Usage: The Hebrew word "tene" refers to a type of basket, often used for carrying or storing goods, particularly agricultural produce. In the context of the Bible, it is typically associated with the presentation of firstfruits and offerings, symbolizing gratitude and provision. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, baskets were essential tools for daily life, used for gathering, storing, and transporting various items, especially agricultural products. The "tene" was likely a woven container, crafted from materials such as reeds or palm leaves. It played a significant role in religious and cultural practices, particularly in the offering of firstfruits, which was a way for the Israelites to acknowledge God's provision and sovereignty over the land.
