Strong's Lexicon baar: To burn, consume, remove, destroy Original Word: בַּעַר Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4442 (πῦρ, pyr): Fire - G2618 (κατακαίω, katakaiō): To burn up, consume Usage: The Hebrew verb "baar" primarily means to burn or consume by fire. It is often used in the context of destruction, whether it be the burning of physical objects, the removal of impurities, or the metaphorical consumption of wickedness. The term can also imply a thorough removal or eradication of something undesirable. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, fire was a common means of purification and judgment. The act of burning was not only a practical method for disposing of waste or unwanted items but also held religious significance. Sacrifices were burned on altars as offerings to God, symbolizing the complete surrender and dedication of the offering. The concept of consuming fire is also associated with God's holiness and judgment, as seen in various biblical narratives.
