Berean Strong's Lexicon shebet: Rod, staff, tribe, scepter Original Word: שֵׁבֶט Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to branch off; a scion, i.e., (literally) a stick (for punishing, writing, fighting, ruling, walking, etc.) or (figuratively) a clan. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4464 (ῥάβδος - rhabdos): A rod, staff, or scepter, used similarly in the New Testament to denote authority or discipline (e.g., Hebrews 1:8). Usage: The Hebrew word "shebet" primarily denotes a rod or staff, which can be used for various purposes such as discipline, guidance, or authority. It is also used metaphorically to refer to a tribe, indicating a branch or division of a nation, particularly the tribes of Israel. Additionally, "shebet" can signify a scepter, symbolizing royal authority and governance. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the rod or staff was a common tool used by shepherds for guiding and protecting their flocks. It also served as a symbol of authority and discipline within the family and community. The concept of a "tribe" as a division of the nation of Israel is rooted in the patriarchal system, where each tribe descended from one of the twelve sons of Jacob. The scepter, as a symbol of kingship, reflects the governance and leadership roles within the Israelite monarchy.
