Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word κάλαμος (kálamos), meaning "reed" or "stalk."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of stubble or straw in the Hebrew Bible is often represented by the word תֶּבֶן (teben), Strong's Hebrew 8401, which similarly denotes the remnants of a harvest and is used metaphorically to describe things that are insubstantial or easily destroyed. Usage: The term is used in the New Testament to describe the remnants of a harvest, often symbolizing something that is temporary or easily destroyed. Context: The Greek word καλάμη appears in the New Testament in contexts that emphasize the transient and perishable nature of earthly things. In Matthew 3:12, John the Baptist uses the imagery of καλάμη to describe the separation of the righteous from the wicked, stating, "His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will clear His threshing floor, gathering His wheat into the barn, and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire." Here, καλάμη is part of the chaff that is burned, symbolizing judgment and purification.
