Strong's Lexicon peri: Fruit Original Word: פְּרִי Word Origin: Derived from the root verb פָּרָה (parah), meaning "to bear fruit" or "to be fruitful." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2590 καρπός (karpos) – fruit, produce, result Usage: The Hebrew word "peri" primarily refers to the fruit of a tree or plant, encompassing both literal and metaphorical uses. In a literal sense, it denotes the produce of the land, such as grapes, figs, and olives. Metaphorically, "peri" can signify the results or outcomes of one's actions, character, or life, often used to describe moral and spiritual fruitfulness. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, agriculture was central to daily life and the economy. The concept of fruitfulness was deeply embedded in the culture, symbolizing prosperity, blessing, and divine favor. The Promised Land was often described as a land "flowing with milk and honey," emphasizing its fertility and abundance. Fruitfulness was also a key theme in the covenant relationship between God and Israel, with obedience to God's commandments often linked to agricultural prosperity.
