Strong's Lexicon qatsah: End, extremity, border, edge Original Word: קָצָה Word Origin: Derived from the root קָצָה (qatsah), which means "to cut off" or "to end." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for "qatsah" is ἄκρον (akron), which also means "end" or "extremity." Usage: The Hebrew word "qatsah" refers to the end or extremity of something, often used to describe the outermost parts or borders of a geographical area. It can also denote the conclusion or termination of a period or event. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, "qatsah" is frequently used to describe the boundaries of the Promised Land or the limits of a particular territory. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, understanding the boundaries of land was crucial for maintaining tribal territories and inheritance rights. The concept of borders and extremities was not only a practical matter but also held spiritual significance, as the land was seen as a divine gift from God. The term "qatsah" would have been important in legal and religious contexts, as it defined the limits of what was considered sacred or belonging to a particular tribe.
