Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive rootCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G91 (ἀζύμη, azymē): Refers to unleavened bread, used in the context of the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Usage: The term חָמֵץ is used in the context of leavening, often referring to the process of fermentation that causes bread to rise. It is associated with the concept of leaven, which is prohibited during certain religious observances such as Passover. Context: • The root חָמֵץ (chametz) is primarily used in the Hebrew Bible to describe the process of leavening, which is the fermentation that causes dough to rise. This process is symbolic in various biblical contexts, particularly in the observance of Passover, where the consumption of leavened bread is strictly forbidden. The prohibition of leaven during Passover is a reminder of the Israelites' hasty departure from Egypt, during which they did not have time to let their bread rise.
