Strong's Lexicon segar: To shut, close, deliver, give over Original Word: סְגַר Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2808 (kleio): To shut, close - G3860 (paradidomi): To deliver, hand over Usage: The Hebrew verb "segar" primarily means to shut or close something, such as a door or gate. It can also imply delivering or giving over, often in the context of delivering someone into the hands of another, such as an enemy. This term is used in various contexts, including physical closure, divine action, and metaphorical or judicial settings. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the act of shutting or closing was significant both in daily life and in religious practice. Gates and doors were crucial for protection and privacy, and their closure symbolized security and separation. In a judicial or divine context, "segar" could indicate God's control over circumstances, such as delivering a nation into the hands of another as a form of judgment or protection.
