While the Greek term focuses on the act of producing or giving birth, it shares a thematic connection with זָרַב in the sense of processes and natural courses, albeit from a different perspective—one of creation and emergence rather than depletion and flowing away. Usage: The term זָרַב is used in the context of something flowing or draining away, often implying a sense of loss or depletion. Context: The Hebrew verb זָרַב (zarab) is a primitive root that conveys the action of flowing away, typically used in contexts where a liquid or substance is draining or being depleted. This term is not frequently encountered in the Hebrew Bible, suggesting a specific and nuanced application. The imagery associated with זָרַב often involves natural processes, such as water flowing away from a source, which can symbolize loss or the natural course of events leading to depletion. The concept of flowing away can also metaphorically represent the passing of time or the fading of strength and vitality.
