Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "pas" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew cultural garment. However, the concept of a special garment can be related to Greek terms for clothing, such as "χιτών" (chitōn) for tunic.

Usage: The Hebrew word "pas" refers to a long garment, often a tunic or robe, that extends to the palms or soles. It is typically associated with a garment of distinction or special favor, often worn by individuals of high status or those set apart for a particular purpose.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, clothing was a significant indicator of one's social status and role. A "pas" garment, such as the "coat of many colors" given to Joseph by his father Jacob, symbolized favor and distinction. Such garments were often richly ornamented and signified the wearer's special position within the family or community.
