Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root word לול (lul), which implies something that is twisted or looped.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for לֻלָאָה in the Strong's Concordance, as the specific concept of a loop used in the tabernacle's construction is unique to the Hebrew text and its cultural context. However, related concepts of joining or connecting might be found in Greek terms used for similar purposes in the Septuagint or New Testament contexts. Usage: The term לֻלָאָה is used in the context of the construction of the tabernacle, particularly in reference to the loops of blue material that were used to join the curtains of the tabernacle. Context: לֻלָאָה (Lula'ah) appears in the context of the tabernacle's construction as described in the book of Exodus. The loops were an integral part of the design, serving as a means to connect the curtains that formed the tabernacle's covering. Specifically, Exodus 26:4-5 and Exodus 36:11-12 describe the use of these loops: "Make loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and do the same with the end curtain in the other set. Make fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other." (Exodus 26:4-5, BSB). These loops were paired with clasps to hold the curtains together, ensuring the tabernacle's structure was both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The use of blue material for the loops may symbolize the heavenly or divine nature of the tabernacle, as blue is often associated with the heavens in biblical symbolism.
