Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to split.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Strong's Greek entry is G2463 (κασσία, kassia), which also refers to cassia, a spice similar to cinnamon. This Greek term is used in the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, to translate the Hebrew קִדָּה (qiddah). The use of cassia in both Hebrew and Greek texts highlights its importance in ancient religious and cultural practices. Usage: The term קִדָּה (qiddah) is used in the context of aromatic substances, specifically referring to cassia, a spice similar to cinnamon, used in ancient times for its fragrance and as an ingredient in sacred anointing oil. Context: The Hebrew word קִדָּה (qiddah) appears in the context of the preparation of sacred anointing oil as described in the Old Testament. Cassia is mentioned as one of the key ingredients in the holy anointing oil, which was used to consecrate the tabernacle, its furnishings, and the priests. The reference to cassia is found in Exodus 30:24, where it is listed alongside other precious spices such as myrrh, cinnamon, and calamus. Cassia, like cinnamon, is derived from the bark of trees and is known for its aromatic properties. In ancient times, it was highly valued and often imported from distant lands. The use of cassia in the anointing oil underscores its significance in religious rituals and its symbolic representation of purity and sanctity.
