Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance for the Hebrew פֶרֶט (Peret), as it pertains specifically to Hebrew agricultural laws and practices. However, the concept of leaving gleanings for the poor is echoed in the New Testament's emphasis on charity and care for the needy, though not through a direct lexical equivalent.

Usage: The term פֶרֶט is used in the context of agricultural laws and practices, specifically relating to the gleaning process in vineyards. It denotes the small, individual grapes that are not collected during the initial harvest and are left for the poor and the stranger.

Context: פֶרֶט (Peret) appears in the context of the Mosaic Law, which provided for the poor and the stranger by instructing landowners to leave certain portions of their harvest for them. This term is specifically mentioned in Leviticus 19:10 and Deuteronomy 24:21. In Leviticus 19:10 (BSB), the command is given: "You must not strip your vineyard bare or gather its fallen grapes. Leave them for the poor and the foreigner. I am the LORD your God." Similarly, Deuteronomy 24:21 (BSB) states: "When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you must not go over the vines again. Leave what remains for the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow." These instructions emphasize the importance of social justice and care for the marginalized within the community, reflecting a divine mandate for compassion and provision for those in need.
