Strong's Lexicon sahar: To be round, to revolve, to go about Original Word: סַהַר Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "sahar," the concept of circularity and completeness can be related to Greek words like "κύκλος" (kyklos - circle) or "περιφέρω" (periphero - to carry around). Usage: The Hebrew verb "sahar" primarily conveys the idea of something being round or revolving. It is used to describe circular motion or the act of going around. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it can imply the cyclical nature of certain events or actions, emphasizing the completeness or wholeness of a process. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the concept of circularity and cycles was significant, often associated with the natural order, such as the cycles of the moon, seasons, and agricultural practices. The Hebrew understanding of time and events often reflected this cyclical nature, seeing history as a series of repeating patterns under God's sovereign control.
