Strong's Lexicon qeres: Board, plank Original Word: קֶרֶס Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: qerec Pronunciation: keh-resh Phonetic Spelling: (keh'-res) Definition: Board, plank Meaning: a knob, belaying-pin Word Origin: From an unused root meaning to split off Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "qeres," the concept of boards or planks used in sacred construction can be related to Greek terms used in the New Testament for building and construction, such as "οἰκοδομή" (oikodomē - G3619), meaning building or edification. Usage: The Hebrew word "qeres" refers to a board or plank, typically used in the context of construction. In the Bible, it is most commonly associated with the boards used in the construction of the Tabernacle, the portable earthly dwelling place of God used by the Israelites during their exodus from Egypt. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the Tabernacle was a central place of worship and a symbol of God's presence among His people. The construction of the Tabernacle, as described in the book of Exodus, involved detailed instructions given by God to Moses. The use of "qeres" or boards was crucial in forming the structure of the Tabernacle, providing both support and enclosure. These boards were made of acacia wood, a durable and resistant material, and were overlaid with gold, signifying the holiness and divine nature of the Tabernacle.
