Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive rootCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew verb צָלָה (tsalah) in the Strong's Greek lexicon. However, related concepts of cooking or preparing food can be found in Greek terms such as ὀπτάω (optáō • Strong's Greek 3702), which means to roast or cook. Usage: The verb צָלָה (tsalah) is used in the context of cooking, specifically referring to the process of roasting. This term is often associated with the preparation of meat, particularly in sacrificial or ceremonial contexts. Context: The Hebrew verb צָלָה (tsalah) appears in the context of roasting meat, a common practice in ancient Israelite culture, especially in relation to sacrificial offerings. The act of roasting was significant in various religious ceremonies, where specific instructions were given for the preparation of offerings. For example, in the Passover celebration, the lamb was to be roasted over a fire, as described in Exodus 12:8-9: "They are to eat the meat that night, roasted over the fire, along with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. Do not eat any of the meat raw or cooked in boiling water, but only roasted over the fire—its head and legs and inner parts." This method of preparation was not only practical but also held symbolic meaning, emphasizing the thoroughness and purity required in offerings to God. The use of צָלָה (tsalah) underscores the importance of following divine instructions in worship practices.
