Berean Strong's Lexicon mishpachah: Family, clan, tribe, kindred Original Word: מִשְׁפָּחָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root שָׁפַח (shaphach), meaning "to join" or "to bind together." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's Greek 3965: πατριά (patria) – meaning "family" or "lineage." - Strong's Greek 5443: φυλή (phyle) – meaning "tribe" or "nation." Usage: The term "mishpachah" primarily refers to a family or clan, often extending beyond the immediate nuclear family to include a larger kinship group. It can also denote a tribe or a broader community of related families. In the Old Testament, "mishpachah" is used to describe the social and familial structures that were foundational to Israelite society. It emphasizes the importance of familial bonds, heritage, and collective identity. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of "mishpachah" was central to social organization. Families and clans were the basic units of society, responsible for the welfare and inheritance of their members. The patriarchal system placed significant emphasis on lineage and ancestry, with family ties influencing legal rights, property ownership, and social responsibilities. The "mishpachah" was also a key element in the distribution of land among the tribes of Israel, as seen in the division of the Promised Land.
