Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the root עָרַס (aras), which means "to knead" or "to mix."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4621: σάτον (saton) • Refers to a measure of grain or meal.
• G5445: φυράω (phurao) • Means "to mix" or "to knead," often used in the context of preparing dough.

These Greek terms relate to the concept of meal or dough, similar to the Hebrew עֲרִיסָה, and are used in the New Testament to describe processes involving grain or dough, reflecting the continuity of agricultural and offering practices from the Old Testament to the New Testament era.

Usage: The word is used in the context of offerings, particularly in reference to the dough offering that is given as a firstfruits offering to the Lord. It is a portion of the dough that is separated and consecrated.

Context: עֲרִיסָה (arîsâ) appears in the context of offerings in the Hebrew Bible. It is specifically mentioned in Numbers 15:20-21, where the Israelites are commanded to offer a portion of their dough as a contribution to the Lord. This offering is a symbolic act of dedicating the firstfruits of their labor to God, acknowledging His provision and sovereignty. The dough offering, or "arîsâ," serves as a reminder of the covenant relationship between God and His people, emphasizing the importance of gratitude and dedication in their daily lives. The act of setting aside a portion of the dough signifies the sanctification of the whole, illustrating the principle that the first and best of what one has should be offered to God.
