Strong's Lexicon sid: Lime, plaster Original Word: שִׂיד Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: siyd Pronunciation: seed Phonetic Spelling: (seed) Definition: lime Meaning: Lime, a substance used in construction and agriculture, often for plastering walls or as a fertilizer. Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to boil up. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew word שִׂיד (sîd). However, the concept of lime and its uses can be related to Greek terms associated with construction and purification processes, though these are not directly linked in Strong's Concordance. Usage: The term שִׂיד (sîd) appears in the context of construction and destruction, particularly in the plastering of walls and the symbolic act of destruction by burning or breaking down structures. Context: The Hebrew word שִׂיד (sîd) refers to lime, a material commonly used in ancient times for construction purposes, such as plastering walls. It is mentioned in the context of judgment and destruction, symbolizing the obliteration of structures and cities. In Isaiah 33:12, the imagery of burning lime is used to depict the complete destruction of enemies: "The peoples will be burned to ashes, like thorns cut down and set ablaze." Similarly, Amos 2:1 speaks of the desecration of the bones of the king of Edom, which were burned to lime: "He burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime." These references highlight the use of lime as a metaphor for total annihilation and purification through fire. The process of creating lime involves heating limestone, which aligns with the root meaning of boiling up, indicating transformation through intense heat.
