Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Strong's Greek entry is G2575 (καλύπτω • kalýpto), which means to cover or to conceal. While not a direct translation of a pavilion, the concept of covering or sheltering aligns with the function of a pavilion as a protective or concealing structure.

Usage: The term קֻבָּה is used in the context of a pavilion, which is a temporary or ornamental structure, often used for shelter or as a place of gathering.

Context: The Hebrew word קֻבָּה (Qubbah) appears in the Old Testament and is translated as "pavilion" in the Berean Standard Bible. This term is used to describe a structure that is typically temporary and often associated with royalty or significant gatherings. The concept of a pavilion in ancient times would have been understood as a place of shelter, rest, or assembly, often featuring a domed or arched design. The use of קֻבָּה in the biblical text highlights the cultural and architectural practices of the time, where such structures were significant in both practical and ceremonial contexts. The pavilion could serve as a symbol of protection and hospitality, reflecting the values and social customs of the ancient Near Eastern societies.
