Usage: The Hebrew verb "qabbel" primarily means "to receive" or "to accept." It is used in various contexts, often implying the act of taking something that is offered or given. This can include receiving instructions, accepting a message, or taking on a responsibility. The term suggests a willingness or readiness to accept what is being presented.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the act of receiving was not merely a passive action but often involved a relational or covenantal aspect.
