Strong's Lexicon mizraq: Bowl, Basin Original Word: מִזְרָק Word Origin: From the root זָרַק (zaraq), meaning "to sprinkle" or "to scatter." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "mizraq," the concept of sacrificial vessels can be related to Greek terms such as φιάλη (phialē, Strong's G5357), meaning "bowl" or "vial," used in the context of offerings and rituals. Usage: The term "mizraq" refers to a bowl or basin used primarily in the context of temple worship and sacrificial rituals. It is often associated with the sprinkling or pouring of blood or other offerings as part of the ceremonial practices outlined in the Old Testament. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite worship, the mizraq was an essential vessel used in the tabernacle and later in the temple. These bowls were typically made of precious metals such as gold or silver, signifying their sacred purpose. The mizraq was used by priests to catch the blood of sacrificial animals, which was then sprinkled on the altar as an atonement for sin, symbolizing purification and consecration. This practice was central to the sacrificial system established by God for the Israelites, highlighting the seriousness of sin and the need for atonement.
