Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for דַּבֶּשֶׁת (Dabbesheth) as it is a specific Hebrew term related to the anatomy of camels, and the Greek language does not have a direct equivalent for this particular concept.

Usage: The term דַּבֶּשֶׁת (Dabbesheth) is used in the context of describing the physical characteristic of camels, particularly their humps. It is a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible.

Context: Dabbesheth is a Hebrew term found in the Old Testament, specifically in the context of describing the anatomical feature of camels. The word is derived from an unused root that conveys the idea of being convex or protruding, which aptly describes the hump of a camel. In ancient times, camels were essential for transportation and trade across the arid regions of the Near East, and their humps were a distinctive feature that allowed them to store fat and survive long journeys without water. The term Dabbesheth highlights the importance of camels in the biblical narrative and the practical knowledge of their anatomy by the ancient Hebrews. The Berean Standard Bible does not have a direct quotation for this term, as it is more of a descriptive word rather than a narrative element.
