Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for צַפִיחִת in the Strong's Greek lexicon, as this specific term is unique to the Hebrew context of the Old Testament. However, the concept of unleavened bread or thin cakes can be related to Greek terms used in the New Testament, such as ἄζυμος (azymos, Strong's Greek 106), which refers to unleavened bread.

Usage: The term צַפִיחִת is used in the context of describing a type of food, specifically a flat, thin cake. It appears in the Hebrew Bible to describe a particular kind of unleavened bread or cake.

Context: The Hebrew word צַפִיחִת (tsappiychith) refers to a flat, thin cake, often associated with unleavened bread. This term is used in the context of the Israelites' diet during their wilderness journey. In the Berean Standard Bible, the word appears in Exodus 16:31, where it describes the manna provided by God to the Israelites: "The house of Israel named the bread manna. It was white like coriander seed and tasted like wafers made with honey." Here, the word "wafers" translates the Hebrew צַפִיחִת, emphasizing the thin, flat nature of the manna, which was likened to cakes made with honey. This description highlights the divine provision and the unique characteristics of manna, which sustained the Israelites during their 40 years in the desert.
