Like its Hebrew counterpart, νεφρός is used in the New Testament to symbolize the innermost thoughts and feelings, as seen in Revelation 2:23, where Christ declares, "I am He who searches the minds and hearts," with "minds" translating the Greek νεφρός. Usage: The word כִּלְיָה appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often in reference to the physical kidneys as part of sacrificial rituals, as well as metaphorically to describe the inner thoughts and emotions of a person. Context: • The term כִּלְיָה is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe both the physical organ and the metaphorical seat of human emotion and thought. In the context of sacrificial rites, the kidneys were considered a vital part of offerings, as seen in passages like Leviticus 3:4, where the kidneys are specified as part of the peace offering. This reflects the ancient Near Eastern understanding of the kidneys as integral to the life and health of an organism.
