Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּאָה (pa'ah), which means to cleave or divide.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Strong's Greek entry is G1366, which is the Greek word διχότομος (dichotomos), meaning "cut in two" or "divided." While not a direct translation, it shares the concept of division or separation, similar to the Hebrew root from which פֵּה (peh) is derived.

Usage: The word פֵּה is used in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often to describe the edge or border of an object, such as a sword or a geographical boundary. It can also refer to the mouth of a person or an opening.

Context: The Hebrew term פֵּה (peh) appears in several passages throughout the Old Testament, where it is used to describe the edge or extremity of an object. For example, in the context of a sword, it refers to the sharp edge used for cutting. The term is also employed metaphorically to describe the boundary or limit of a territory or object.

In the Berean Standard Bible, the word is often translated as "edge" or "mouth," depending on the context. For instance, in Joshua 6:5, the term is used to describe the edge of the city wall: "When there is a long blast of the ram’s horn and you hear its sound, all the people shall shout with a great shout. Then the wall of the city will collapse, and the people will go up, each man straight ahead."

The term is also used in a more abstract sense to describe the extremity or limit of something, such as the edge of a garment or the border of a land. In this way, פֵּה (peh) serves as a versatile term that can denote both physical and metaphorical boundaries.
