Strong's Lexicon musabbah: Surrounding, encircling Original Word: מוּסַבָּה Word Origin: Derived from the root סָבַב (sabab), meaning "to turn" or "to surround." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts is περί (peri), meaning "around" or "about," which is Strong's Greek #4012. Usage: The term "musabbah" is used to describe something that is encircled or surrounded. It often conveys the idea of being encompassed or enclosed, whether physically or metaphorically. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it can refer to physical surroundings or the act of being surrounded by people, circumstances, or divine protection. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of being surrounded had both positive and negative connotations. Being surrounded by enemies was a common fear, as cities were often besieged. Conversely, being surrounded by God's protection was a source of comfort and assurance. The imagery of encirclement is prevalent in the Psalms and prophetic literature, reflecting the Israelites' reliance on God's encompassing presence.
