Berean Strong's Lexicon piymah: Fatness, Richness Original Word: פִּימָה Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be fat Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts of abundance or richness is "πλοῦτος" (ploutos - Strong's G4149), which means wealth or riches. Usage: The term "piymah" is used to denote physical fatness or richness, often symbolizing abundance, prosperity, or blessing. In the biblical context, fatness is frequently associated with the best portions of food or the bounty of the land, reflecting God's provision and favor. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, fatness was often seen as a sign of wealth and divine blessing. The agricultural society valued livestock and crops, and the "fat" portions were considered the choicest and most desirable. This concept is reflected in sacrificial practices, where the fat portions were offered to God as a sign of honor and reverence.
