Strong's Lexicon holokautóma: Whole burnt offering Original Word: ὁλοκαύτωμα Word Origin: From the Greek words ὅλος (holos, meaning "whole" or "entire") and καίω (kaio, meaning "to burn") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H5930 (עֹלָה, olah): Refers to the burnt offering in the Hebrew Bible, which is the equivalent of the Greek "holokautóma." Usage: The term "holokautóma" refers to a type of sacrifice in which the entire offering is consumed by fire. In the context of the Old Testament sacrificial system, it signifies a complete and total offering to God, symbolizing the worshiper's total dedication and surrender to the Lord. This type of offering was distinct from other sacrifices where only portions were burned, and the rest was consumed by the priests or the offerer. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the whole burnt offering was a central aspect of worship and atonement. It was performed daily, as well as on special occasions and festivals, as prescribed in the Mosaic Law. The offering typically involved an unblemished male animal, such as a bull, ram, or bird, depending on the offerer's means. The complete consumption by fire symbolized the complete devotion and submission of the worshiper to God, acknowledging His sovereignty and seeking His favor.
