Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root סָגַר (sagar), meaning "to shut" or "to close."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence between Hebrew and Greek terms, the concept of an enclosure or stronghold can be related to Greek terms such as "περίβολος" (peribolos), meaning "enclosure" or "wall," and "φρούριον" (phourion), meaning "fortress" or "stronghold." These terms capture similar ideas of protection and boundary found in the Hebrew מִסְגֶּרֶת.

In summary, מִסְגֶּרֶת is a multifaceted term that encompasses the ideas of physical and metaphorical enclosures, emphasizing the importance of structure, protection, and boundaries in biblical thought.

Usage: The word מִסְגֶּרֶת is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe physical structures that enclose or protect, such as frames or borders. It can also metaphorically refer to a place of security or defense.

Context: • The term מִסְגֶּרֶת appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often describing architectural elements. For instance, in the construction of the Tabernacle and the Temple, מִסְגֶּרֶת is used to describe the frames or borders that provide structure and support (Exodus 25:25, 37:12). These frames are integral to the design, ensuring stability and delineating sacred spaces.
• In a metaphorical sense, מִסְגֶּרֶת can also refer to a stronghold or a place of refuge, emphasizing the concept of protection and security. This usage underscores the importance of boundaries and enclosures in both physical and spiritual contexts.
• The concept of מִסְגֶּרֶת as a margin or border can also be extended to the idea of limits or boundaries in a broader sense, reflecting the ordered and structured nature of creation as depicted in the Hebrew Bible.
