Strong's Lexicon sagar: To shut, close, deliver, give over Original Word: סָגַר Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - κλείω (kleio) - G2808: To shut, close - παραδίδωμι (paradidomi) - G3860: To deliver, hand over Usage: The Hebrew verb "sagar" primarily means to shut or close something, such as a door or gate. It can also imply delivering or giving over, often in the context of delivering someone into the hands of another, such as an enemy. This term is used in various contexts, including physical closure, divine action, and metaphorical or judicial settings. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the act of shutting or closing was significant in both practical and symbolic terms. Gates and doors were crucial for protection and security, and closing them was an act of safeguarding. In a judicial or divine context, being "shut in" or "delivered over" could imply judgment or divine intervention. The concept of God "shutting" or "delivering" often carried connotations of His sovereign control over circumstances and outcomes.
