(properly, si vera lectio, the separated; compare Syriac ![]() ![]() Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּרַד (parad), meaning "to separate" or "to divide."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for פְרֻדָה in the Strong's Greek lexicon. However, concepts of separation or division can be found in Greek words such as διαίρεσις (diareseis • Strong's Greek 1244), meaning "division" or "distribution," and σπέρμα (sperma • Strong's Greek 4690), meaning "seed" or "offspring," which can carry similar connotations of distinct parts or elements. Usage: The word פְרֻדָה is used in the context of describing something that is separated or distinct, often referring to a kernel or a small, individual part. Context: פְרֻדָה (perudah) appears in the Hebrew Bible in contexts that emphasize separation or division. The term is used to describe a kernel, which is a small, distinct part of a larger whole, such as a grain or seed. This concept of separation is rooted in the verb פָּרַד (parad), which means "to separate" or "to divide." The imagery of a kernel highlights the idea of something that is distinct and set apart, yet still part of a larger entity. In biblical literature, this can symbolize purity, individuality, or the essential nature of something. The use of פְרֻדָה in scripture underscores the importance of recognizing and valuing the distinct parts that make up the whole, whether in a physical, spiritual, or communal sense.
