Strong's Lexicon misgereth: Frame, border, enclosure Original Word: מִסְגֶּרֶת Word Origin: Derived from the root סָגַר (sagar), meaning "to shut" or "to close." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of a frame or border can be related to Greek terms like "περίβλημα" (periblema), meaning "that which is thrown around, a covering or cloak," which conveys the idea of an enclosing or surrounding structure. Usage: The term "misgereth" refers to a frame or border, often used in the context of construction or design, particularly in the tabernacle or temple settings. It denotes a structural or decorative boundary that encloses or defines a space. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the construction of sacred spaces like the tabernacle and the temple was of utmost importance. The use of frames and borders was not only functional but also symbolic, representing order, separation, and sanctity. The "misgereth" would have been an integral part of the craftsmanship that went into creating these holy places, reflecting the care and precision required in worship and service to God.
