Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance that corresponds to the Hebrew פַחַד (pachad) as "testicle." However, Greek terms related to male anatomy or reproductive organs might be considered in broader lexical studies, though they are not directly linked to this specific Hebrew term.

Usage: The word פַחַד (pachad) is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a part of the male anatomy, specifically the testicles. It is a rare term and appears in contexts related to physical descriptions or conditions.

Context: The Hebrew term פַחַד (pachad) is a noun that appears in the Old Testament with a specific anatomical reference. It is derived from the root פָּחַד, which is more commonly associated with fear or trembling, indicating a possible etymological connection to the physical reaction of trembling or quivering. In its anatomical sense, פַחַד is used to describe the testicles, highlighting the physical and reproductive aspects of the male body. This term is not frequently encountered in the biblical text, suggesting its specialized use in particular contexts. The understanding of פַחַד as "testicle" is supported by its usage in ancient Hebrew literature and lexicons, where it is recognized as a term for male reproductive anatomy.
