However, the concept of a "rib" in the Greek New Testament can be related to the Greek word πλευρά (pleura), which is used in passages such as John 19:34, referring to the side or rib area of Jesus during the crucifixion. Usage: The word is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Daniel. Context: • The term עֲלַע appears in the Aramaic section of the book of Daniel, specifically in Daniel 7:5. In this passage, the word is used to describe the ribs in the mouth of a bear, which is part of a vision seen by Daniel. The bear, representing a kingdom, is depicted as having three ribs in its mouth, symbolizing its conquests and the devouring of other nations. The imagery of the ribs is significant in the prophetic vision, indicating the bear's power and aggression. The use of the Aramaic language in this section of Daniel reflects the historical context of the Babylonian and Persian empires, during which Aramaic was a common lingua franca.
