Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּלַל (palal), which means "to judge" or "to intercede."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with judgment is κρίσις (krisis - Strong's Greek 2920), which also denotes judgment, decision, or legal proceedings.

Usage: The term "peliliyyah" refers to the concept of judgment or a legal decision. It is used in contexts where a formal decision or judgment is rendered, often in a legal or judicial setting. The word emphasizes the process of discerning right from wrong and making a decision based on justice and righteousness.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of judgment was central to maintaining social order and justice. The legal system was deeply rooted in the Torah, and judges were expected to uphold God's laws. The term "peliliyyah" would have been understood within this framework, where decisions were made not only based on human wisdom but also in alignment with divine principles. The role of judges and the process of judgment were crucial in ensuring that the community lived according to God's standards.
