Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance that corresponds to the Hebrew שָׂקַד (saqad). However, Greek terms related to fastening or securing include δέω (deo • Strong's Greek 1210), which means to bind or tie, and στηρίζω (sterizo • Strong's Greek 4741), which means to establish or make firm. These Greek terms capture similar concepts of securing or making something stable.

Usage: The term שָׂקַד (saqad) is used in the context of fastening or securing something firmly. It is a verb that conveys the action of making something stable or fixed.

Context: The Hebrew verb שָׂקַד (saqad) appears in the context of fastening or securing objects. This term is not frequently used in the Hebrew Bible, indicating a specific action of making something firm or stable. The root concept involves the idea of attaching or binding something in a way that it remains secure. The action of fastening is often associated with ensuring stability and permanence, reflecting a careful and deliberate act. The verb שָׂקַד is related to the physical act of securing objects, which can metaphorically extend to concepts of establishing or confirming something in a more abstract sense.
