Strong's Lexicon sid or sud: Lime, plaster Original Word: שׂיד Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: siyd Pronunciation: seed Phonetic Spelling: (seed) Definition: to plaster Meaning: To plaster, to cover with lime or whitewash Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry related to the concept of plastering or whitewashing is Strong's Greek Number G2867, κονιάω (koniaō), which means to plaster or whitewash. This term is used in the New Testament, notably in Matthew 23:27, where Jesus criticizes the Pharisees as "whitewashed tombs," highlighting their outward appearance of righteousness while being inwardly corrupt. This lexical entry provides a comprehensive understanding of the Hebrew term שִׂיד (sîyd), its usage in biblical texts, and its cultural and theological implications. Usage: The verb שִׂיד (sîyd) is used in the context of construction and renovation, specifically referring to the act of plastering or covering a surface with lime or whitewash. This process was common in ancient building practices for both aesthetic and protective purposes. Context: The Hebrew verb שִׂיד (sîyd) appears in the context of construction and maintenance of buildings, where it describes the act of applying a coating of lime or whitewash to walls. This practice was prevalent in ancient Israel and surrounding regions, serving both decorative and functional roles. Plastering with lime helped to protect structures from the elements and provided a clean, bright appearance. In the Old Testament, the use of שִׂיד is mentioned in passages that describe the preparation and maintenance of buildings. For example, in Deuteronomy 27:2-4, the Israelites are instructed to set up large stones and coat them with plaster upon entering the Promised Land. This act symbolized the establishment of God's law in the land, as the plastered stones were inscribed with the words of the law. The process of plastering is also metaphorically used in the Bible to describe false appearances or superficial righteousness. In Ezekiel 13:10-15, the prophet condemns false prophets who "whitewash" flimsy walls, symbolizing their deceptive teachings that provide no real protection or stability.
