Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to flame or sparkle.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew word שְׁבוּ (Shebu) in the Strong's Greek lexicon, as the term specifically refers to a Hebrew cultural and religious artifact. However, the concept of precious stones is present in the Greek New Testament, such as in Revelation 21:19-20, where various gemstones are described as adorning the foundations of the New Jerusalem. Usage: The term שְׁבוּ (Shebu) is used in the context of describing a precious stone, the agate, which is mentioned in the Bible as part of the high priest's breastplate. Context: The Hebrew word שְׁבוּ (Shebu) refers to the agate, a semi-precious stone known for its varied colors and patterns. In the biblical context, the agate is one of the stones set in the breastplate of the high priest, as described in the Book of Exodus. The breastplate, also known as the "breastplate of judgment," was a sacred garment worn by the high priest during his service in the Tabernacle and later in the Temple. Each stone on the breastplate represented one of the twelve tribes of Israel, and the agate was one of these stones, signifying its importance and value.
