Strong's Lexicon patsal: To strip, to separate, to divide Original Word: פָצַל Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "patsal," the concept of separation can be related to Greek terms such as "χωρίζω" (chorizo - Strong's Greek 5563), which means to separate or divide. Usage: The Hebrew verb "patsal" primarily means to strip or to separate. It is used in contexts where something is being divided or stripped away, often in a physical sense. The term can imply a process of taking apart or removing layers, which can be metaphorical for separation or division in a broader sense. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the act of dividing or separating could have various implications, from the physical act of dividing land or possessions to the more abstract concept of separating oneself from sin or impurity. The Hebrew people often used physical actions as metaphors for spiritual truths, and the concept of separation was significant in their religious practices, such as the separation of the holy from the profane.
