Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive rootCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in Strong's Concordance is G1096 (γίνομαι, ginomai), which means "to become," "to come into being," or "to happen." While not a direct translation, G1096 shares a thematic connection in terms of coming into existence or assuming a particular status or role, similar to the concept of being the firstborn or receiving the birthright in Hebrew thought. Usage: The verb בָּכַר (bakar) is used in the context of birthright and primogeniture, often referring to the act of being the firstborn or the rights and privileges associated with the firstborn status. It can also imply the act of bearing early fruit or being fruitful. Context: The Hebrew verb בָּכַר (bakar) is a primitive root that primarily conveys the concept of being the firstborn or the act of giving the birthright. In the ancient Near Eastern context, the firstborn son held a place of special privilege and responsibility within the family structure. This status often included a double portion of the inheritance and leadership roles within the family or tribe.
