Strong's Lexicon perudah: Division, separation Original Word: פְרֻדָה Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּרַד (parad), meaning "to divide" or "to separate." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for the concept of division or separation can be found in words like διαίρεσις (diairessis - Strong's Greek 1244), which also conveys the idea of division or distribution. Usage: The term "perudah" refers to a state of division or separation. It is used to describe a physical or metaphorical separation, often implying a sense of disunity or fragmentation. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it can denote the division of people, land, or even spiritual separation from God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of division was significant both in a physical and spiritual sense. The division of land among the tribes of Israel was a critical aspect of their identity and inheritance. Spiritually, separation from God was seen as a consequence of sin, leading to a loss of divine favor and protection. The idea of division also played a role in the social and religious life of the community, where unity was often emphasized as a reflection of God's covenant with His people.
