Usage: The word "migrash" appears in various contexts in the Hebrew Bible, primarily in reference to the open lands or suburbs surrounding Levitical cities. It is used to describe the pasturelands allocated to the Levites for their livestock and other needs. Context: • The term "migrash" is frequently mentioned in the context of the Levitical cities, as seen in passages such as Numbers 35:2-3, where the Israelites are instructed to give the Levites cities to dwell in, along with surrounding pasturelands (migrash) for their cattle and flocks. This allocation was essential for the sustenance of the Levites, who did not receive a territorial inheritance like the other tribes.
