Strong's Lexicon arak: To arrange, set in order, prepare, compare, value Original Word: אָרַךְ Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for "arak" is "τάσσω" (tassō), Strong's Greek #5021, which also means to arrange or set in order. Usage: The Hebrew verb "arak" primarily means to arrange or set in order. It is used in various contexts, including the preparation of items, the arrangement of troops for battle, and the setting of a table. The word conveys a sense of organization and intentionality, often implying a careful and deliberate process. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of order and arrangement was significant, reflecting the broader biblical theme of God bringing order out of chaos. The act of arranging or setting things in order was not only practical but also symbolic of divine order and purpose. This is evident in the meticulous instructions for the arrangement of the Tabernacle and its furnishings, as well as in the preparation of offerings and sacrifices.
