Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the Aramaic שְׁטַר (sheṭar) in the Strong's Greek lexicon. However, the concept of divisions or parts can be related to Greek terms such as μέρος (meros • G3313), meaning "part" or "portion," which is used in the New Testament to describe divisions or portions of land, inheritance, or responsibility.

Usage: This Aramaic term appears in the context of the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Daniel, where it is used to describe a side or part of a structure.

Context: The term שְׁטַר (sheṭar) is found in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, particularly in the book of Daniel. In Daniel 6:2 (BSB), it is used to describe the administrative divisions or parts of the kingdom under King Darius. The verse states: "and over them three administrators, including Daniel, to whom these satraps were accountable so that the king would not suffer loss." Here, שְׁטַר (sheṭar) is understood as a reference to the divisions or sides of the kingdom's governance structure. The use of this term highlights the organized and structured nature of the administration during the reign of Darius, emphasizing the importance of accountability and order in the governance of the empire.
