Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root verb נָשָׂא (nasa), meaning "to lift, carry, take."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G3799 (ophthalmos): While not a direct translation, this Greek term relates to sight or vision, which can metaphorically connect to the idea of being lifted up or elevated in perception. Usage: The word שְׂאֵת (se'eth) is used in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often to describe physical or metaphorical elevation. It can refer to a physical swelling or scab, particularly in the context of leprosy, as well as to a state of emotional or social upliftment. Context: • Physical Elevation: In Leviticus 13:2, שְׂאֵת (se'eth) is used to describe a swelling or scab on the skin, which is a potential sign of leprosy. The passage provides instructions for the priestly examination of such marks to determine ritual cleanliness or uncleanness: "When a man has a swelling or scab or bright spot on his skin that becomes an infectious skin disease, he must be brought to Aaron the priest or to one of his sons who is a priest."
