Word Origin: Derived from the root בָּטָא (bata), which means "to speak" or "to utter."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent that captures a similar concept of speech or utterance is λόγος (logos - Strong's Greek 3056), which is used extensively in the New Testament to denote word, speech, or reason.

Usage: The term "mibta" refers to the act of speaking or the expression of words. It is used to denote the articulation of thoughts through speech, emphasizing the importance of what is spoken. In the biblical context, it often highlights the significance of words and their impact, whether in vows, declarations, or general communication.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, words held significant power and were seen as a reflection of one's character and intentions. The spoken word was binding, especially in the context of vows and oaths. The Israelites were taught to be mindful of their speech, as it was believed that words could influence both the physical and spiritual realms. This cultural understanding underscores the biblical emphasis on truthfulness and integrity in communication.
