Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G5287 (ὑπόστασις, hypostasis): This Greek term is often translated as "substance" or "confidence" in the New Testament. While not a direct equivalent to כִּנְעָה (kin'ah), it shares a conceptual link through the idea of underlying reality or foundation, which can be metaphorically related to the idea of something being "contained" or "bundled" together. The term ὑπόστασις is used in passages such as Hebrews 11:1, where it describes faith as the "substance" of things hoped for.

Context: • The term כִּנְעָה (kin'ah) is a noun that is derived from the root verb כָּנַע (kanah), which conveys the idea of being subdued or humbled. While the specific noun form "package" or "bundle" does not appear in the Hebrew Bible, the root concept of humility and subjugation is prevalent throughout the Scriptures. The root כָּנַע is often associated with the Canaanites, a people who were subdued by the Israelites as described in the historical narratives of the Old Testament.
• The concept of being "brought low" or "humbled" is a recurring theme in the Bible, emphasizing the importance of humility before God. This is reflected in various passages where individuals or nations are humbled as part of divine judgment or discipline.
• In post-biblical Hebrew, the term כִּנְעָה (kin'ah) may have been used in a more literal sense to describe a physical package or bundle, reflecting the idea of something being gathered or contained.
