Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew verb בָּרַד (barad) in the Strong's Greek lexicon. However, the concept of hail as a divine instrument can be found in the New Testament, such as in Revelation 8:7, where hail is mentioned as part of the apocalyptic judgments.

Usage: The verb בָּרַד (barad) is used in the context of describing the act of hailing, particularly in reference to the weather phenomenon where ice pellets fall from the sky.

Context: The Hebrew verb בָּרַד (barad) is primarily associated with the act of hailing, as seen in the context of divine judgment or natural phenomena. It appears in the Hebrew Bible in contexts where hail is sent as a form of divine intervention or as a natural occurrence. The most notable instance is found in the narrative of the plagues of Egypt, where hail is described as one of the plagues sent by God upon Egypt. In Exodus 9:18-26, the text describes a severe hailstorm that devastates the land of Egypt, sparing only the land of Goshen where the Israelites resided. This event is depicted as a demonstration of God's power and a judgment against Pharaoh's obstinacy. The verb בָּרַד is used to convey the action of hailing, emphasizing the destructive and overwhelming nature of the storm. The use of hail as a divine tool is also echoed in other biblical passages, underscoring its role as an instrument of God's will and a symbol of His might.
