Strong's Lexicon beten: Belly, womb, body, innermost part Original Word: בֶּטֶן Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: beten Pronunciation: BEH-ten Phonetic Spelling: (beh'-ten) Definition: the belly, the womb, the bosom, body of anything Meaning: The term "beten" primarily refers to the belly, the womb, or the bosom. It can also denote the body of anything, emphasizing the idea of an inner cavity or hollow space. Word Origin: Derived from an unused root probably meaning to be hollow. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1064 (gastēr): Refers to the stomach or womb, similar to "beten" in its primary sense of the belly or womb. • G2588 (kardia): While primarily meaning "heart," it can metaphorically align with "beten" in expressing the innermost part of a person. • G2836 (koilia): Directly corresponds to "beten" as it denotes the belly or womb. • G4698 (splagchnon): Often used to describe the inward parts or emotions, akin to the metaphorical use of "beten" for deep-seated feelings or the core of one's being. Usage: The word "beten" is used in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often to describe the physical belly or womb. It can also metaphorically refer to the innermost part of a person or object, highlighting a place of origin or deep-seated emotion. Context: • Physical Belly/Womb: In many instances, "beten" is used to describe the physical belly or womb, as seen in Genesis 25:23, where it refers to the womb of Rebekah: "The LORD said to her, 'Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples from within you will be separated; one people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger.'" • Metaphorical Use: The term is also employed metaphorically to express deep emotions or the core of one's being. For example, in Job 32:18-19, Elihu speaks of his inner compulsion: "For I am full of words, and the spirit within me compels me. Behold, my belly is like unvented wine; it is about to burst like a new wineskin." • Symbolic of Origin: "Beten" can symbolize the place of origin or creation, as in Psalm 139:13, where the psalmist acknowledges God's role in forming him: "For You formed my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's womb." • Broader Application: Beyond human anatomy, "beten" can describe the inner part of objects, such as the body of a structure or vessel, emphasizing its function as a container or source.
