Strong's Lexicon gargeroth: Berries, clusters Original Word: גַּרְגְּרוֹת Word Origin: Derived from the root גרגר (gargar), which refers to a berry or small fruit. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "gargeroth," the concept of fruitfulness and abundance can be related to Greek words such as καρπός (karpos, Strong's G2590), meaning "fruit." Usage: The term "gargeroth" refers to clusters of small fruits or berries. It is used in the context of describing the produce of the land, often symbolizing abundance and fertility. The word is typically associated with the bounty of the Promised Land, highlighting the richness and provision of God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, agriculture was a central part of daily life and economy. The mention of "gargeroth" would evoke images of the fertile land flowing with milk and honey, as promised to the Israelites. Berries and clusters of grapes were common produce, and their abundance was a sign of divine blessing. The agricultural cycle was closely tied to religious festivals and offerings, reflecting the dependence of the people on God's provision.
