Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root verb שָׂבַע (sāḇaʿ), which means "to be satisfied" or "to be full."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4134 (πλήρης, plērēs): This Greek word means "full" or "complete," often used in the New Testament to describe fullness in various contexts, including spiritual fullness. Usage: This term is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a condition of being fully satisfied, often in relation to physical nourishment but also metaphorically to describe contentment or fulfillment in other areas. Context: The Hebrew word שָׂבֵעַ (sāḇēaʿ) appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, illustrating both physical and metaphorical satisfaction. It is frequently used to describe the state of being full after eating, as seen in passages like Proverbs 13:25: "The righteous eat to their hearts' content, but the stomach of the wicked goes hungry." This highlights a contrast between the satisfaction of the righteous and the lack experienced by the wicked. The term also appears in contexts that emphasize God's provision and the resulting contentment of His people, as in Psalm 22:26: "The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the LORD will praise Him—may your hearts live forever!" Here, the satisfaction is not only physical but also spiritual, pointing to a deeper fulfillment found in seeking and trusting in God. The concept of being satiated extends beyond mere physical needs, suggesting a holistic sense of well-being and contentment that comes from divine provision and righteousness.
