Strong's Lexicon arab: To pledge, exchange, mix, become surety Original Word: עָרַב Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1453 (egiro): To raise up, awaken - G1458 (egkaleomai): To call in, accuse Usage: The Hebrew verb "arab" primarily means to pledge or to become surety for someone. It is used in contexts where one person guarantees the obligations or actions of another. The term can also imply mixing or exchanging, often in a metaphorical sense, such as the mixing of peoples or ideas. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of surety was significant in legal and familial contexts. A person who became a surety for another was essentially putting their own resources or reputation on the line to guarantee the other's obligations. This practice was common in financial transactions and familial responsibilities. The idea of mixing or exchanging also reflects the cultural interactions between different groups and the blending of customs and practices.
