Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent concepts might include διαιρέω (diaireō - to divide) or διέρχομαι (dierchomai - to pass through), which capture similar actions of division or passage in the Septuagint and New Testament contexts.

Usage: The Hebrew verb "pasag" primarily conveys the action of passing through or dividing. It is used in contexts where a physical or metaphorical separation or passage is described. The term can imply a decisive action, often involving a clear demarcation or transition from one state or place to another.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of dividing or passing through was significant in both physical and spiritual contexts. The act of dividing land, for instance, was a common practice in the allocation of territories among tribes. Spiritually, the idea of passing through or dividing can symbolize a transition or transformation, such as moving from a state of bondage to freedom, or from impurity to holiness.
