However, related Greek terms might include those used for boards or planks in construction, though these would not be direct translations of רְחִיט. Usage: The term רְחִיט is used in the context of describing a panel, likely in a construction or architectural setting. It is a rare term and does not appear frequently in the Hebrew Bible. Context: רְחִיט (rechit) is a Hebrew term that appears in the context of ancient construction, possibly referring to a panel or a board used in building structures. The root of the word suggests an action of widening or spreading out, which aligns with the function of a panel as a broad, flat piece used to cover or enclose spaces. The rarity of the term in the biblical text indicates it may have been a specialized term, possibly used in specific architectural descriptions or instructions. The precise nature and use of רְחִיט in ancient Israelite architecture remain somewhat obscure due to its limited occurrence in the biblical corpus.
