I. פסס (√ of following; perhaps compare פשׂת spread; compare Phoenician (Punic) פס tablet; Aramaic פַסָּא, Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּסַל (pasal), meaning "to carve" or "to hew."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint (LXX) for פְסִיל is εἴδωλον (eidolon), which also means "idol" or "image." This term is used in the New Testament to refer to idols, as seen in passages like 1 Corinthians 8:4 (BSB): "So about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that an idol is nothing at all in the world, and that there is no God but one." Usage: The term פְסִיל (pesil) is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to idols, specifically those that are carved or graven. It is often associated with the prohibition against idolatry and the worship of false gods. Context: The Hebrew term פְסִיל (pesil) appears in the context of idolatry, a significant theme throughout the Old Testament. The word is used to describe images or idols that are carved, often from wood or stone, and are objects of worship contrary to the worship of Yahweh, the God of Israel. The making and worship of פְסִיל are explicitly forbidden in the Ten Commandments, as seen in Exodus 20:4-5 (BSB): "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in the heavens above, on the earth below, or in the waters beneath. You shall not bow down to them or worship them."
