Strong's Lexicon qodesh: Holiness, sacredness, sanctuary Original Word: קֹדֶשׁ Word Origin: Derived from the root verb קָדַשׁ (qadash), meaning "to be set apart" or "to be holy." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G40 (ἅγιος, hagios) – often translated as "holy" or "saint." - G2413 (ἱερόν, hieron) – referring to the temple or sacred place. Usage: The term "qodesh" primarily denotes a state of being set apart for a special purpose, often in relation to God. It is used to describe things, places, and people that are consecrated or dedicated to the divine. In the Old Testament, "qodesh" is frequently associated with the holiness of God, the sanctity of the Tabernacle and Temple, and the consecration of priests and offerings. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, holiness was a central concept that defined the relationship between God and His people. The idea of being "set apart" was integral to the covenantal relationship, where Israel was called to be a holy nation (Exodus 19:6). The Tabernacle and later the Temple were considered the earthly dwelling places of God's presence, and thus, were deemed "qodesh." The priesthood, sacrifices, and various rituals were established to maintain the sanctity required to approach God.
