Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root לָבַשׁ (lavash), meaning "to clothe" or "to wear."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Greek 2440: ἱμάτιον (himation) • a garment, clothing. Usage: The word לְבוּשׁ is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra. It is employed to describe physical clothing or attire and, by extension, can symbolize one's status or role. Context: לְבוּשׁ appears in the Aramaic sections of the Old Testament, notably in the book of Daniel. In Daniel 3:21, it is used to describe the clothing of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego as they were bound and cast into the fiery furnace: "So they were tied up, wearing robes, trousers, turbans, and other clothes, and were thrown into the blazing furnace." Here, לְבוּשׁ signifies the garments that were part of their attire. The term underscores the completeness of their attire, emphasizing the miraculous nature of their deliverance, as their garments were unharmed by the fire. The metaphorical use of לְבוּשׁ to mean "wife" is less common and is not explicitly found in the canonical texts but is understood from the cultural context where a wife is seen as a covering or companion to her husband.
