Strong's Lexicon pinnah: Corner, cornerstone, chief Original Word: פִנָּה Word Origin: From the root פָּנָה (panah), meaning "to turn" or "to face." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G204: akrogoniaios (cornerstone) - G2776: kephalē (head, chief) Usage: The Hebrew word "pinnah" primarily refers to a "corner" or "cornerstone." It is used metaphorically to denote strength, leadership, or a chief figure, often in the context of construction or architecture. In biblical literature, it can symbolize a foundational or pivotal element, such as a cornerstone in a building, which is essential for the structure's stability and integrity. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern architecture, the cornerstone was the first stone set in the construction of a masonry foundation, important for aligning the entire structure. It was often a large, carefully chosen stone, symbolizing strength and durability. In biblical times, the concept of a cornerstone extended beyond physical buildings to represent leaders or key figures who provided stability and direction for a community or nation.
