Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Strong's Greek entry is G4585, which is πυρίκαυστος (purikaustos), meaning "burnt with fire." While not a direct translation of סֹלֶת, it relates to the concept of offerings and sacrifices, as both terms are associated with the preparation and presentation of offerings in a religious context.

Usage: The term סֹלֶת (solet) is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to fine flour, particularly in the context of offerings and sacrifices. It is mentioned in various passages where flour is required for grain offerings, as well as in the preparation of bread and cakes for sacred purposes.

Context: סֹלֶת (solet) is a term that appears frequently in the Old Testament, primarily in the context of religious offerings. It refers to fine flour, which was a key ingredient in grain offerings presented to God. This flour was made from wheat and was finely ground, symbolizing purity and quality. The use of סֹלֶת in offerings is detailed in the books of Leviticus and Numbers, where it is often combined with oil and frankincense as part of the sacrificial rituals.

In Leviticus 2:1, the Berean Standard Bible states, "When anyone presents a grain offering to the LORD, his offering shall be of fine flour. He is to pour oil on it, put frankincense on it." This passage highlights the importance of סֹלֶת in the sacrificial system, emphasizing its role in worship and dedication to God.

The use of fine flour in offerings underscores the principle of giving the best to God, as it was a valuable commodity in ancient times. The meticulous preparation of סֹלֶת, involving the removal of bran and impurities, symbolizes the purity and dedication required in worship.

Additionally, סֹלֶת is mentioned in the context of the showbread, which was placed in the Tabernacle and later in the Temple as a perpetual offering before the Lord (Leviticus 24:5-9). This further illustrates its significance in the religious life of Israel.
