Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "ruq," the concept of emptying or pouring out can be related to Greek words such as "κενόω" (kenoō - to empty) and "ἐκχέω" (ekcheō - to pour out).

Usage: The Hebrew verb "ruq" primarily means to empty or pour out. It is used in various contexts, often implying the act of making something void or bare. This can refer to physical emptying, such as pouring out contents from a vessel, or metaphorical emptying, such as the depletion of resources or strength.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of emptying or pouring out was significant in both daily life and religious practices. Vessels were commonly used for storing and pouring liquids, and the act of emptying them could symbolize a range of actions from hospitality to judgment. In a spiritual sense, the idea of being emptied could also relate to the surrender or depletion of one's own will or resources before God.
