Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Aramaic, corresponding to the Hebrew word דֶּלֶת (deleth), meaning "door."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G833 (αὐλή • aulē): This Greek term can mean a courtyard, palace, or sheepfold, and is used in the New Testament to describe areas associated with significant buildings or residences. Usage: The term תְּרַע is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament to denote a door or, by extension, a palace. It appears in contexts where the physical structure of a door is referenced, as well as metaphorically to describe a place of authority or residence, such as a palace. Context: The Aramaic word תְּרַע (teraʿ) is found in the Old Testament, specifically in the books of Daniel and Ezra, which contain sections written in Aramaic. In these texts, תְּרַע is used to describe both literal and figurative doors. For instance, in Daniel 3:26, the term is used when Nebuchadnezzar approaches the door of the furnace. The word can also imply a place of authority or a royal residence, as seen in its usage in contexts that suggest a palace or a significant building. The concept of a door in biblical literature often symbolizes access, transition, or a threshold between different states or realms, which is consistent with its usage in these Aramaic texts.
