Strong's Lexicon issaron: Tenth part, tenth Original Word: עִשָּׂרוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root עֶשֶׂר (eser), meaning "ten." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "issaron" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew measurement term. However, the concept of a "tenth" or "tithe" can be related to Greek terms like δεκάτη (dekate, G1181), which refers to a tenth part or tithe. Usage: The term "issaron" refers to a tenth part, often used in the context of measurements, particularly in the offerings and sacrifices described in the Old Testament. It is commonly associated with the tenth part of an ephah, a unit of dry measure, used in the preparation of grain offerings. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, precise measurements were crucial for religious observances, especially in the context of offerings and sacrifices. The "issaron" was a standard measure used to ensure that offerings were made according to the prescriptions given by God. This reflects the broader cultural emphasis on obedience and exactness in worship practices, as well as the agrarian context in which grain offerings were a significant part of religious life.
