◄ 8561. timorah ►
Strong's Lexicon timorah: Palm tree, column, pillar Original Word: תִּמֹּר Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: timmor Pronunciation: tee-mo-RAH Phonetic Spelling: (tim-more') Definition: a palm-like pilaster Meaning: A palm-like pilaster or column, often used in architectural contexts to describe decorative features resembling palm trees. Word Origin: Derived from the root תָּמָר (tamar), meaning "palm tree." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in Strong's Concordance is G822 (ἄκανθα • akantha), which refers to a thorn or thorn bush. While not directly related in meaning, both terms are used in biblical texts to describe natural elements that carry symbolic significance. The Greek term does not have a direct architectural parallel to תִּמֹּר but is included here for reference within the Strong's numbering system. Usage: The term תִּמֹּר is used in the context of architectural descriptions, particularly in the construction of the temple and other significant buildings in ancient Israel. It refers to columns or pilasters that are designed to resemble palm trees, symbolizing beauty and strength. Context: תִּמֹּר (timmor) appears in the Hebrew Bible in descriptions of Solomon's temple, where it is used to describe the decorative palm-like features that adorned the temple's structure. These pilasters were likely intended to evoke the imagery of palm trees, which are often associated with victory, prosperity, and divine blessing in biblical literature. The use of palm motifs in temple architecture reflects the cultural and religious significance of the palm tree in ancient Israel. In 1 Kings 6:29, the text describes the walls of the temple as being carved with figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, illustrating the ornate and symbolic nature of the temple's design. Similarly, in 1 Kings 7:36, the description of the temple's construction includes palm tree motifs, emphasizing their importance in the aesthetic and spiritual atmosphere of the sacred space.
