Part of Speech: Noun Masculine

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for "tsad" is "πλευρά" (pleura), which also means "side" or "rib."

Usage: The Hebrew word "tsad" primarily denotes a position or location relative to another object, often translated as "side" or "beside." It is used to describe physical proximity or alignment with something else. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it can refer to the side of a structure, a person standing beside another, or a position in relation to a geographical feature.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, spatial relationships were significant in both physical and metaphorical contexts. The concept of being "beside" or "alongside" could imply support, partnership, or opposition, depending on the context. The physical layout of ancient Israelite settlements, with communal living and shared spaces, often necessitated a clear understanding of spatial relationships.
