Berean Strong's Lexicon sear: Hair Original Word: שֵׂעָר Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׂעַר (sa'ar), which means to be rough or hairy. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2359 (thrix): Refers to hair in the New Testament, used in contexts such as Matthew 10:30, "And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered." Usage: The Hebrew word "se'ar" primarily refers to hair, often denoting the hair of the head or body. It can be used in both literal and figurative contexts. In the Bible, hair is sometimes associated with strength, beauty, or consecration, as seen in the Nazarite vow where individuals would not cut their hair as a sign of their dedication to God (e.g., Samson in Judges 16). Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, hair held significant symbolic meaning. Long hair could be a sign of strength and vitality, as in the case of Samson. Conversely, shaving one's head could symbolize mourning or repentance. Hair was also a marker of identity and social status, with different styles and grooming practices reflecting one's role or condition in society.
