Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be firm or to found.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G939 (βάσις, basis): Refers to a stepping or walking, but can also imply a base or foundation.
• G2777 (κεφαλή, kephalē): While primarily meaning "head," it can metaphorically refer to a cornerstone or foundation.
• G2889 (κόσμος, kosmos): Generally means "world" or "order," but in some contexts, it can imply a structured foundation.
• G5172 (τυπόω, typōō): Means to form or mold, often used in the context of creating a foundational pattern or type.

These Greek terms, while not direct translations, share thematic connections with the concept of a foundation or base, as seen in the Hebrew אֶדֶן. They highlight the broader biblical theme of establishing a firm and ordered foundation, both physically and spiritually.

Usage: The term אֶדֶן is used in the context of construction and architecture, particularly in reference to the tabernacle and temple structures. It denotes the bases or sockets into which the boards or pillars of the tabernacle were fitted, providing stability and support.

Context: אֶדֶן (Eden) appears primarily in the context of the construction of the tabernacle as described in the book of Exodus. The word is used to describe the silver sockets that served as the foundation for the boards of the tabernacle. These sockets were crucial for the stability and portability of the structure, as they allowed the boards to be securely anchored while also being easily dismantled and transported.

In Exodus 26:19, the text specifies, "and make forty silver bases to go under the twenty frames—two bases for each frame, one under each projection." This illustrates the practical function of the אֶדֶן as a foundational element, ensuring that the sacred space was both stable and mobile.

The use of אֶדֶן underscores the importance of a firm foundation in the construction of holy spaces, symbolizing the need for spiritual stability and support. The meticulous detail given to the construction of the tabernacle, including the use of אֶדֶן, reflects the care and reverence required in creating a dwelling place for the Divine presence.
