Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to pulverize or crush.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for רִיפָה in the Strong's Concordance, as the concept of grits as described in the Hebrew context does not have a specific Greek counterpart in the biblical texts. However, related concepts of grain and meal can be found in Greek terms such as σῖτος (sitos, Strong's Greek 4621) for grain or wheat, and ἄλευρον (aleuron, Strong's Greek 224) for flour. Usage: The term רִיפָה is used in the context of food, specifically referring to a coarse meal or grits, which were a staple in ancient diets. Context: רִיפָה (Riphah) appears in the Hebrew Bible as a term for grits, a coarse meal made from crushed grains. This food item was a common part of the diet in ancient Israel, often used in various culinary preparations. The process of making רִיפָה involved grinding grains into a coarse consistency, which could then be cooked or used in other recipes. The term is indicative of the agrarian lifestyle of the Israelites, where grains such as barley and wheat were central to their sustenance. The preparation of רִיפָה would have been a routine task, reflecting the daily life and dietary practices of the time.
