Strong's Lexicon gearah: Gerah Original Word: גְּעָרָה Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to scrape Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "gearah" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew unit of measurement. However, the concept of weights and measures is present in the Greek New Testament, often using the term "talanton" (Strong's Greek 5007) for larger weights. Usage: The term "gearah" refers to a small unit of weight and currency used in ancient Israel. It is the smallest weight measurement mentioned in the Bible, equivalent to one-twentieth of a shekel. The gerah was used in the context of trade, temple offerings, and legal standards. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, weights and measures were crucial for maintaining fairness in trade and commerce. The gerah, as a unit of weight, was part of a standardized system that ensured equitable transactions. The use of precise measurements was also significant in religious contexts, particularly in the offerings and sacrifices prescribed in the Mosaic Law. The gerah's role in these systems underscores the importance of integrity and honesty in both economic and spiritual practices.
