Strong's Lexicon gizrah: Portion, district, cut-off place Original Word: גִּזְרָה Word Origin: From the root גָּזַר (gazar), meaning "to cut" or "to divide." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of division or portion can be related to Greek terms like "μέρος" (meros, G3313), meaning "part" or "portion." Usage: The term "gizrah" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a specific portion or district, often implying a section that is set apart or cut off from a larger area. It can refer to a physical location or a metaphorical division. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, land division was a common practice for administrative, tribal, and religious purposes. The concept of a "gizrah" would have been understood as a designated area, possibly for specific tribes, families, or functions. This reflects the broader cultural practice of delineating land for inheritance and governance.
