Strong's Lexicon kasuy: Covered, concealed Original Word: כָּסוּי Word Origin: Derived from the root verb כָּסָה (kasah), meaning "to cover" or "to conceal." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for the concept of covering is καλύπτω (kalýptō), Strong's Greek #2572, which also means "to cover" or "to hide." Usage: The term "kasuy" is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe something that is covered or concealed. It often conveys the idea of being hidden from view or protected by a covering. This can refer to physical coverings, such as clothing or shelter, as well as metaphorical coverings, such as the concealment of sin or the protection of God's presence. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of covering was significant both physically and spiritually. Physically, coverings provided protection from the elements and were a sign of modesty and propriety. Spiritually, coverings symbolized God's protection and the concealment of sin. The Day of Atonement, for example, involved the covering of sins through sacrificial rituals, highlighting the importance of being "covered" by God's grace and mercy.
