Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5266 (hupodema): Refers to a sandal or shoe, similar in function and cultural significance to the Hebrew "minal." Usage: The term "minal" refers to a type of footwear, specifically a sandal or shoe, commonly worn in ancient Near Eastern cultures. It is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a basic item of clothing that protects the feet. Sandals were typically made from leather or other durable materials and were fastened with straps. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, sandals were an essential part of daily attire due to the rough and arid terrain. They were simple in design but crucial for protection against the elements. Sandals also held symbolic significance in various cultural and religious practices, such as the act of removing one's sandals in holy places as a sign of reverence (e.g., Moses at the burning bush in Exodus 3:5).
