Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents in the Strong's Concordance that correspond to the Hebrew כָּשָׂה. However, concepts related to abundance or prosperity can be found in Greek terms such as πλουτέω (plouteō • Strong's Greek 4147), meaning "to be rich" or "to prosper."

Usage: The term כָּשָׂה is used in the context of becoming fat or growing stout, often metaphorically to describe prosperity or abundance.

Context: The Hebrew verb כָּשָׂה (kasah) is a primitive root that conveys the idea of growing fat or becoming stout. This term is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a state of physical abundance or prosperity, often with a connotation of excess or indulgence. The concept of growing fat is sometimes used metaphorically to illustrate spiritual complacency or moral decline, as physical abundance can lead to a sense of self-sufficiency and neglect of spiritual duties. In the ancient Near Eastern context, fatness was often associated with wealth and blessing, but the biblical narrative sometimes warns against the spiritual dangers of such prosperity.
