Strong's Lexicon kir: Furnace, cooking range, hearth Original Word: כִּיר Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: kiyr Pronunciation: keer Phonetic Spelling: (keer) Definition: a cooking range Meaning: A cooking range or furnace Word Origin: From an unused root meaning to dig through Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew word כִּיר (kiyr), as it is a specific term related to Hebrew culture and practices. However, Greek terms related to cooking or heating implements might include words like κλίβανος (klibanos), meaning oven or furnace, which can be found in the New Testament context. Usage: The term כִּיר is used in the context of a cooking range or furnace, typically referring to a portable stove or hearth used for cooking purposes. Context: The Hebrew word כִּיר (kiyr) appears in the context of ancient Israelite domestic life, specifically relating to cooking and food preparation. The term is understood to denote a type of cooking range or furnace, which would have been a common household item in ancient times. The kiyr was likely a portable structure, possibly made of clay or metal, used for heating and cooking food. It would have been an essential part of daily life, providing a means to prepare meals. In the Berean Standard Bible, the term is found in Leviticus 11:35, which states: "Anything on which any of them falls when they die will be unclean. Whether it is an oven or a cooking pot, it must be broken in pieces. They are unclean and will remain unclean for you." This passage highlights the kiyr's role in the dietary and purity laws of the Israelites, emphasizing the importance of maintaining ritual cleanliness in all aspects of life, including food preparation. The kiyr, as a cooking range, would have been used in conjunction with other kitchen implements and vessels, forming an integral part of the household's culinary equipment. Its mention in the context of Levitical law underscores the significance of purity and cleanliness in the religious and cultural practices of ancient Israel.
