Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root כָּבַר (kabar), meaning "to plait" or "to weave."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for מַכְבָּר in the Strong's Concordance, as the concept of woven or plaited cloth is contextually specific to the Hebrew text. However, Greek terms related to weaving or fabric, such as ὑφαντός (huphantos, Strong's Greek 5307), which means "woven," may serve as a conceptual parallel in the broader biblical narrative. Usage: The term מַכְבָּר is used in the context of describing woven or plaited materials, often referring to a type of cloth or covering. Context: The Hebrew term מַכְבָּר (makbar) appears in the context of the construction and furnishing of the Tabernacle, as described in the Old Testament. It is used to denote a woven or plaited fabric, which was likely employed in various coverings or decorative elements within the sacred space. The craftsmanship involved in creating a מַכְבָּר would have required skill in weaving or plaiting, suggesting its importance in the aesthetic and functional aspects of the Tabernacle's design. The use of such materials underscores the attention to detail and the emphasis on beauty and order in the worship practices of ancient Israel.
