Strong's Lexicon agalah: Cart, Wagon Original Word: עֲגָלָה Word Origin: Derived from the root עגל (agal), meaning "to roll" or "to revolve." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "agalah," the concept of a cart or wagon can be related to Greek terms like ἅρμα (harma), meaning "chariot" or "carriage," which is used in the Septuagint to describe similar vehicles. Usage: The Hebrew word "agalah" refers to a cart or wagon, typically a vehicle with wheels used for transportation. In the biblical context, it is often associated with the movement of goods, people, or sacred objects. The term is used to describe both simple carts for everyday use and more elaborate wagons for specific purposes, such as transporting the Ark of the Covenant. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, carts and wagons were essential for agricultural and domestic life. They were used to transport harvests, goods, and sometimes people. The construction of these vehicles varied, but they were generally made of wood and pulled by animals such as oxen. The use of carts is indicative of the agrarian lifestyle of the Israelites and their reliance on animal labor for transportation and farming.
