Berean Strong's Lexicon qodqod: Crown, top of the head, scalp Original Word: קָדְקֹד Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to pound or strike Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "qodqod," the concept of the head or crown can be related to Greek words such as "κεφαλή" (kephalē - Strong's Greek 2776), meaning head, which is used in the New Testament to denote authority and prominence. Usage: The Hebrew word "qodqod" refers to the crown or top of the head. It is often used metaphorically to denote the highest point or the most prominent part of something. In biblical texts, it can symbolize authority, blessing, or the focal point of an action or event. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the head was considered the seat of life and authority. The crown of the head, or "qodqod," was often associated with leadership and blessing. Anointing the head with oil was a common practice to signify consecration and divine favor. The imagery of the head or crown was also used in blessings and curses, indicating the importance of this part of the body in cultural and religious contexts.
