Strong's Lexicon sid: Lime, plaster Original Word: שִׂיד Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: siyd Pronunciation: seed Phonetic Spelling: (seed) Definition: Lime, plaster Meaning: lime Word Origin: From an unused root meaning to be white Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the concept of whitewashing is echoed in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 23:27, where Jesus refers to the Pharisees as "whitewashed tombs." Usage: The Hebrew word "סִיד" (sid) refers to lime or plaster, a substance used in ancient times for construction and decoration. It is often associated with the process of whitewashing, which involves applying a thin layer of lime-based substance to surfaces for protection and aesthetic purposes. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, lime was a common material used in construction and agriculture. It was used to plaster walls, seal cisterns, and even as a fertilizer. The process of whitewashing with lime was symbolic of purification and renewal, as it covered imperfections and provided a fresh appearance. This practice is reflected in various biblical texts, where whitewashing is sometimes used metaphorically to describe superficial or deceptive appearances.
