Berean Strong's Lexicon saphach: To attach, join, add, or associate Original Word: סָפַח Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's Greek 4347 (προσκολλάω, proskollao) - to glue to, to adhere, to join closely - Strong's Greek 2853 (κολλάω, kollao) - to glue, to unite, to join Usage: The Hebrew verb "saphach" primarily means to attach or join something to another. It conveys the idea of adding or associating one thing with another, often in a physical or metaphorical sense. In the context of the Old Testament, it can refer to the act of joining or associating people, objects, or even conditions. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of joining or attaching was significant in various aspects of life, including family, community, and religious practices. The act of joining could imply a formal association, such as joining a family or tribe, or a more informal connection, such as associating with a group or cause. The idea of being joined or attached also had implications for purity and holiness, as certain associations could render a person ceremonially unclean or clean.
