Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "neked" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific term related to Hebrew livestock descriptions. However, Greek terms related to animals or markings might be considered in broader studies. Usage: The Hebrew word "neked" is used to describe something that is spotted or speckled. It is often used in the context of describing the appearance of animals, particularly livestock, in the Hebrew Bible. The term conveys the idea of a pattern or marking that is distinct and noticeable. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, livestock was a significant measure of wealth and prosperity. The appearance of animals, including their color and markings, was important for identification and breeding purposes.

The use of "neked" in the Hebrew Bible reflects the agrarian lifestyle and the importance of livestock in the economy and daily life of the Israelites.
