Strong's Lexicon Sukkoth: Sukkoth Original Word: סֻכּוֹת Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root סֻכָּה (sukkah), meaning "booth" or "temporary shelter." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the proper noun "Sukkoth," but the concept of temporary shelters is related to the Greek word σκηνή (skēnē), Strong's Greek #4633, meaning "tent" or "tabernacle." Usage: Sukkoth refers to a location mentioned in the Bible, specifically a place of encampment for the Israelites during their exodus from Egypt. It is also the name of a city east of the Jordan River, in the territory of Gad, known for its connection to the account of Gideon. Cultural and Historical Background: The term "Sukkoth" is closely related to the Hebrew festival of Sukkot, which commemorates the Israelites' journey through the wilderness and their reliance on God's provision. The festival involves dwelling in temporary shelters, or booths, as a reminder of the transient nature of life and God's protection. Historically, Sukkoth as a location served as a significant waypoint during the Israelites' exodus and later as a city in the tribal allotment of Gad.
