Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of cold in the Greek New Testament can be found in words like ψυχρός (psychros - Strong's Greek 5593), which also means cold or chill.

Usage: The Hebrew word "qor" primarily denotes the concept of coldness, often in a literal sense referring to temperature. It is used to describe the physical sensation of cold, as well as metaphorically to convey a sense of chill or lack of warmth in various contexts.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, where the climate could vary significantly, the concept of cold was a tangible reality, especially during the night or in certain seasons. Cold weather could be a time of hardship, requiring preparation and protection. The Israelites, like other ancient peoples, would have been familiar with the challenges posed by cold weather, including the need for adequate clothing and shelter.
