Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root תָּוַךְ (tavak), meaning "to be in the middle" or "to divide."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry is Strong's G3322 • μεσόω (mesóō), which means "to be in the middle" or "to be halfway." This Greek term is used in the New Testament to describe something that is central or midway, similar to the Hebrew concept of תִּיכוֹן. The idea of centrality in both Hebrew and Greek texts often carries symbolic significance, representing a point of convergence or the heart of a matter.

Usage: The term תִּיכוֹן is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote something that is central or located in the middle. It is often used in geographical contexts to describe a central location or position.

Context: The Hebrew word תִּיכוֹן (Tikon) appears in the context of describing central or middle locations, particularly in geographical references. In the Berean Standard Bible, it is used to describe the "Great Sea" as the "Western Sea" or "Mediterranean Sea," which is central to the land of Israel. This term emphasizes the centrality of the sea in relation to the surrounding territories. The concept of centrality is significant in biblical texts, often symbolizing balance, order, and the focal point of God's creation or plan. The use of תִּיכוֹן in the Hebrew Bible underscores the importance of location and position in understanding the narrative and theological themes.
