Strong's Lexicon shebeth: Cessation, rest, inactivity Original Word: שֶׁבֶת Word Origin: Derived from the root verb יָשַׁב (yashab), meaning "to sit" or "to dwell." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4521 (sabbaton): Refers to the Sabbath, a day of rest. - G2663 (katapausis): Meaning rest or cessation, often used in the context of spiritual rest. Usage: The Hebrew word "shebeth" primarily denotes a state of rest or cessation from work. It is often used in the context of the Sabbath, a day of rest ordained by God. The term emphasizes the importance of ceasing from labor to focus on spiritual renewal and worship. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of "shebeth" was integral to the observance of the Sabbath, a day set apart for rest and worship as commanded in the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:8-11). This practice distinguished the Israelites from surrounding nations and served as a sign of their covenant relationship with God. The Sabbath was not only a physical rest but also a time for spiritual reflection and community gathering.
