Strong's Lexicon yatsaq: To pour, to cast, to flow Original Word: יָצַק Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1632 (ἐκχέω, ekcheo): To pour out, to shed - G2572 (καταχέω, katacheo): To pour down, to pour over Usage: The Hebrew verb "yatsaq" primarily means to pour or to cast, often in the context of pouring out liquids or casting metals. It conveys the action of causing something to flow or be distributed, whether it be liquid, metal, or even metaphorically, emotions or blessings. The term is used in various contexts, including the pouring of oil, the casting of metal objects, and the outpouring of God's spirit or wrath. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, pouring oil was a significant ritual act, often associated with anointing kings, priests, or sacred objects, symbolizing consecration and the presence of the Holy Spirit. Casting metals was a crucial skill in ancient craftsmanship, used in creating tools, weapons, and religious artifacts. The act of pouring or casting was not only a physical process but also carried spiritual and symbolic meanings, reflecting God's provision, judgment, or blessing.
