Strong's Lexicon necek: Drink offering, libation Original Word: נֶסֶךְ Word Origin: Derived from the root נָסַךְ (nasak), meaning "to pour out" or "to cast." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4686 (σπονδή, spondē): Refers to a drink offering or libation in the New Testament context, often used metaphorically by the Apostle Paul to describe his life being poured out in service to Christ (e.g., Philippians 2:17). Usage: The term "necek" refers to a liquid offering, typically wine, that is poured out as part of a sacrificial ritual. In the context of ancient Israelite worship, a necek was often offered alongside other sacrifices, such as burnt offerings or grain offerings, as a means of honoring and appeasing God. The act of pouring out a drink offering symbolized the dedication and surrender of one's life and resources to God. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, drink offerings were a common practice among various cultures and religions. For the Israelites, the necek was an integral part of the sacrificial system established in the Mosaic Law. It was a tangible expression of devotion and gratitude, acknowledging God's provision and sovereignty. The drink offering was typically made of wine and was poured out at the altar, signifying the worshiper's complete submission to God's will.
