Strong's Lexicon shebuth or shebith: Captivity, Exile, Captives Original Word: שְׁבוּת Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: shbuwth Pronunciation: she-VOOTH or she-VEETH Phonetic Spelling: (sheb-ooth') Definition: Captivity, Exile, Captives Meaning: exile, prisoners, a former state of prosperity Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁבָה (shavah), meaning "to take captive" or "to lead away." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G161 (aichmalosia): Captivity - G486 (antilambano): To take hold of, to help, sometimes used in the context of deliverance from captivity. Usage: The term "shebuth" or "shebith" primarily refers to the state of being taken captive or being in exile. It is often used in the context of the Israelites' experiences of being conquered and led away by foreign powers. The word conveys both the physical act of being taken away and the broader implications of loss, displacement, and the hope for restoration. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, captivity was a common consequence of military defeat. Conquering nations would often deport populations to prevent rebellion and to utilize the skills and labor of the captives. For the Israelites, captivity was not only a physical displacement but also a spiritual and cultural crisis, as it often involved being removed from the land promised to them by God. The Babylonian Exile (586–538 BC) is one of the most significant periods of captivity in Jewish history, profoundly impacting Jewish identity and theology.
