This Greek term shares the concept of interwoven or interconnected structures, similar to the Hebrew שְׂבָכָה. Usage: This word is used in the context of describing intricate, interwoven designs or structures, often associated with decorative or functional elements in architecture. Context: The Hebrew term שְׂבָכָה (sebakah) appears in the context of ancient Israelite architecture and design, particularly in the construction of the Temple. It is used to describe a network or lattice-like structure that serves both decorative and practical purposes. In 1 Kings 7:17, the term is used to describe the network of chains that adorned the capitals of the pillars in Solomon's Temple: "He made a network of interwoven chains for the capitals on top of the pillars, seven for each capital." This intricate design not only added to the aesthetic beauty of the Temple but also symbolized the complexity and interconnectedness of creation. The use of שְׂבָכָה in biblical texts highlights the importance of craftsmanship and artistry in the worship and religious life of ancient Israel.
