Strong's Lexicon sar: To turn aside, depart, remove, take away Original Word: סַר Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G868 (ἀφίημι, aphiemi) - to send away, leave, permit - G645 (ἀποστρέφω, apostrepho) - to turn away, reject Usage: The Hebrew verb "sar" primarily means to turn aside, depart, or remove. It is often used in the context of turning away from a path, removing something from a place, or departing from a particular state or condition. The term can be used both in a physical sense, such as removing an object, and in a metaphorical sense, such as turning away from sin or departing from God's commandments. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of turning aside or departing was significant in both physical and spiritual contexts. The Israelites were often called to turn away from idolatry and sin and to return to the ways of the Lord. The idea of removal or departure also played a role in the rituals and laws of purification, where unclean elements were to be removed from the community.
