Strong's Lexicon mishbetsah: Filigree, setting, network Original Word: מְשְׁבְּצָה Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁבַץ (shabats), meaning "to interweave" or "to set." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "mishbetsah," the concept of intricate craftsmanship can be related to Greek terms like "κόσμος" (kosmos), meaning "order" or "adornment," which is used in the New Testament to describe the beauty and order of creation (e.g., 1 Peter 3:3). Usage: The term "mishbetsah" refers to a type of intricate work, often used to describe the decorative settings or filigree work in the context of the priestly garments and the tabernacle furnishings. It denotes a craftsmanship that involves interwoven or lattice-like designs, typically used to enhance the beauty and function of sacred objects. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, craftsmanship was highly valued, especially in the context of religious artifacts. The use of "mishbetsah" in the construction of the tabernacle and the high priest's garments reflects the importance of beauty and precision in worship. The intricate designs symbolized the complexity and order of God's creation and His attention to detail. Such craftsmanship was a reflection of divine artistry and was meant to inspire reverence and awe among the Israelites.
