Strong's Lexicon tsavvar: Neck Original Word: צַוַּאר Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to bind Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5137 τραχηλος (trachēlos) - neck Usage: The Hebrew word "tsavvar" primarily refers to the neck, the part of the body that connects the head to the torso. It is often used metaphorically in the Bible to signify submission, pride, or vulnerability. The neck is a symbol of strength and flexibility, but also of potential weakness when exposed or unprotected. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the neck was considered a vital and vulnerable part of the body. It was often adorned with jewelry, such as necklaces, to signify wealth and status. The act of placing a yoke on the neck symbolized submission and servitude, while a stiff neck indicated stubbornness and rebellion against authority, particularly against God.
