Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from a root corresponding to the Hebrew כִּסֵּא (kisse'), meaning "throne."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek term is θρόνος (G2362 • thronos), which also means "throne." This Greek term is used extensively in the New Testament to describe seats of authority, both human and divine, such as in Revelation 4:2: "At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it." (BSB). The concept of the throne in both the Hebrew-Aramaic and Greek contexts emphasizes the centrality of divine rule and the ultimate authority of God in biblical theology. Usage: The term כָּרְסֵא is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, specifically in the Book of Daniel, to denote a throne. It is a symbol of power, authority, and governance. Context: The Aramaic word כָּרְסֵא appears in the context of the Book of Daniel, a text that includes significant portions written in Aramaic. This term is used to describe the thrones seen in Daniel's visions, which are symbolic of divine and earthly authority. In Daniel 7:9, the term is used in the vision of the Ancient of Days: "As I continued to watch, thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took His seat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of His head was like pure wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze." (BSB). Here, כָּרְסֵא signifies not only a physical seat but also the majesty and sovereignty of the divine presence. The imagery of the throne in Daniel underscores themes of judgment, authority, and the ultimate sovereignty of God over earthly kingdoms.
