Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁקַב (shaqab), meaning "to lie down" or "to rest."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is ἀνάπαυσις (anapausis), which also means rest or repose. This term appears in passages like Matthew 11:28, where Jesus invites the weary to find rest in Him.

Usage: The term "shiqquv" refers to the act of lying down, often in the context of rest or repose. It can imply a state of physical rest or a metaphorical sense of peace and tranquility. In the Hebrew Bible, it is used to describe both literal and figurative states of rest.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, rest was a significant concept, both physically and spiritually. The Sabbath, a day of rest, was central to Jewish life, symbolizing not only physical rest but also spiritual renewal and trust in God's provision. The idea of rest also extended to the afterlife, where the righteous were believed to find eternal rest with God.
