Berean Strong's Lexicon arisah: Kneading trough, dough Original Word: עריסה Word Origin: Derived from the root ערס (aras), which means to knead or to mix. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "arisah," the concept of bread and dough is present in the New Testament, such as in the Greek word ζύμη (zume), meaning leaven or yeast, which is used metaphorically in various teachings of Jesus (e.g., Matthew 13:33). Usage: The term "arisah" refers to a kneading trough or the dough that is kneaded within it. In the context of ancient Hebrew culture, it is associated with the preparation of bread, a staple food in the diet of the Israelites. The kneading trough was an essential household item used to mix and prepare dough before baking. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, bread was a fundamental part of daily sustenance, and the process of making bread was a common domestic task. The kneading trough, or "arisah," was a critical tool in this process. It was typically a wooden or stone container where flour and water were mixed and kneaded to form dough. The preparation of bread was often a communal activity, reflecting the agrarian lifestyle and the importance of bread in social and religious contexts.
