Strong's Lexicon shulchan: Table Original Word: שֻׁלְחָן Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: shulchan Pronunciation: shool-khawn' Phonetic Spelling: (shool-khawn') Definition: a table, a meal Meaning: A table, often used in the context of a meal or a place where food is served. Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to send or to stretch out. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek term in the New Testament is G5132 (τράπεζα, trapeza), which also means table. This term is used in similar contexts, such as in the accounts of the Last Supper (e.g., Luke 22:21) and in the early church's communal meals (Acts 6:2). The concept of the table in both Testaments underscores themes of fellowship, provision, and worship. Usage: The term שֻׁלְחָן appears in various contexts throughout the Hebrew Bible, primarily referring to a physical table used for meals or offerings. It is used both in domestic settings and in the context of religious rituals. Context: The Hebrew word שֻׁלְחָן (shulchan) is frequently encountered in the Old Testament, signifying a table. This term is used in both literal and figurative senses. In a literal sense, it refers to a piece of furniture used for dining or presenting offerings. For instance, in Exodus 25:23-30, the instructions for the construction of the table of showbread in the Tabernacle are detailed, highlighting its sacred use. The table was to hold the "bread of the Presence" before the LORD, symbolizing God's provision and fellowship with His people. In a more domestic context, שֻׁלְחָן is used to describe the tables in homes where meals are shared, as seen in 1 Samuel 20:29, where David speaks of his family's table. The term also appears in passages that metaphorically describe abundance and divine blessing, such as Psalm 23:5, "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies." The table is a symbol of hospitality, community, and divine provision. In prophetic literature, the table can also represent the corruption of worship, as seen in Malachi 1:7, where the priests are accused of defiling the LORD's table with unworthy offerings.
