Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root verb סָכַךְ (sakhakh), meaning "to weave" or "to cover."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for מַסֶּכֶת in the Strong's Concordance, as the concept of the warp in a loom is specific to Hebrew weaving terminology. However, related Greek terms might include those associated with weaving or fabric, such as ὑφάντης (huphantēs • weaver) or ὑφάσμα (huphasma • woven fabric), though these do not correspond directly to the Hebrew מַסֶּכֶת. Usage: The word מַסֶּכֶת is used in the context of weaving, particularly in reference to the warp, which is a fundamental component in the process of creating woven fabric. Context: מַסֶּכֶת appears in the Hebrew Bible in contexts related to weaving and textile production. The warp, or מַסֶּכֶת, is essential in the structure of a loom, providing the foundational threads that are held under tension. This allows the weft threads to be interlaced, creating fabric. The concept of weaving is often used metaphorically in the Bible to describe the intricate and purposeful design of creation and life. The warp, as a symbol of structure and order, can be seen as a representation of divine providence and the underlying framework of the universe.
