Strong's Lexicon rats: To run Original Word: רץ Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: rats Pronunciation: rahts Phonetic Spelling: (rats) Definition: a fragment Meaning: A fragment, piece, or broken piece. Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to crush or break. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence in the Greek Strong's entries for the Hebrew רץ (retz), the concept of fragmentation or breaking can be related to Greek terms such as συντρίβω (syntribo • Strong's Greek 4937), which means to crush or break in pieces, and κατακλάω (kataklao • Strong's Greek 2608), meaning to break down or shatter. These Greek terms similarly convey the idea of breaking or shattering, often used in the New Testament to describe physical breaking or metaphorical destruction. Usage: The term רץ (retz) is used in the context of describing fragments or broken pieces, often in relation to pottery or other materials that have been shattered. Context: • רץ (retz) appears in the Hebrew Bible to denote fragments or pieces, particularly in contexts where objects are broken or shattered. This term is illustrative of the physical state of an object that has been subjected to force, resulting in its fragmentation. The imagery of broken pieces can also carry metaphorical significance, symbolizing destruction or the breaking of something whole into parts. • In the Berean Standard Bible, the term is used to convey the literal breaking of objects, often in prophetic or poetic passages where the breaking of physical items serves as a metaphor for divine judgment or the consequences of human actions. • The concept of fragmentation is significant in biblical literature, as it often parallels themes of judgment, restoration, and the transformative power of divine intervention. The breaking and subsequent restoration of objects can symbolize the process of repentance and renewal.
