Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • There is no direct Greek equivalent for צִיץ (Tsits) in the Strong's Greek Concordance, as it is a specific Hebrew term related to the high priest's attire. However, the concept of holiness and consecration is echoed in various Greek terms related to sanctification and dedication to God, such as ἅγιος (hagios, Strong's Greek 40), meaning "holy" or "sacred."

Usage: The term צִיץ (Tsits) is used in the context of the high priest's garments, specifically referring to the gold plate or diadem worn on the forehead, inscribed with "Holy to the LORD."

Context: • The term צִיץ (Tsits) appears in the context of the priestly garments as described in the Book of Exodus. It is a significant component of the high priest's attire, symbolizing holiness and dedication to God. The צִיץ is a gold plate that is fastened to the front of the turban worn by the high priest. This plate is inscribed with the words "Holy to the LORD" (Exodus 28:36, BSB), signifying the consecration of the high priest to God's service. The צִיץ serves as a reminder of the sanctity required in the priestly office and the need for the high priest to bear the iniquity of the holy things which the Israelites consecrate. The צִיץ is a physical representation of the spiritual purity and dedication expected of those who serve in the presence of God.
