Strong's Lexicon gibol: Boundary, border Original Word: גִּבְעֹל Word Origin: Derived from the root גָּבַל (gabal), meaning "to twist" or "to bind." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3725 (ὅριον, horion): Refers to a boundary or limit, often used in the New Testament to describe territorial borders. Usage: The term "gibol" refers to a boundary or border, often used in the context of territorial limits or demarcations. It signifies the physical or metaphorical lines that define the extent of a land, property, or area. In the biblical context, it is frequently associated with the division of land among the tribes of Israel, as well as the boundaries set by God for His people. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, boundaries were crucial for defining tribal territories and individual inheritances. These borders were often marked by natural landmarks such as rivers, mountains, or stones. The concept of boundaries was not only practical but also held spiritual significance, as it represented the divine allocation of land and the order established by God. Respecting these boundaries was a matter of justice and righteousness, reflecting the covenant relationship between God and His people.
