In the Bible, ropes are mentioned in several contexts, often symbolizing strength, bondage, or deliverance.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>1. <b>Construction and Binding:</b><br> Ropes were crucial in construction and binding activities. In the building of the Tabernacle, ropes would have been used to secure the tent and its coverings. Although not explicitly mentioned in the context of the Tabernacle, ropes were undoubtedly part of the practical tools used by the Israelites.<br><br>2. <b>Symbol of Bondage:</b><br> Ropes often symbolize bondage or captivity. In <a href="/judges/16-11.htm">Judges 16:11</a>, Samson is bound with new ropes by the Philistines, which he subsequently breaks: "He said to her, 'If they bind me with new ropes that have never been used, then I will become weak and be like any other man.'" This illustrates the use of ropes as a means of restraint and the miraculous strength given to Samson by God.<br><br>3. <b>Deliverance and Escape:</b><br> Ropes also play a role in accounts of deliverance. In <a href="/joshua/2-15.htm">Joshua 2:15</a>, Rahab uses a rope to help the Israelite spies escape from Jericho: "Then she let them down by a rope through the window, for her house was in the wall of the city, and she lived in the wall." This act of faith and courage is pivotal in the narrative of Israel's conquest of Jericho.<br><br>4. <b>Nautical Use:</b><br> In <a href="/acts/27-32.htm">Acts 27:32</a>, ropes are mentioned in the context of a shipwreck: "So the soldiers cut the ropes to the lifeboat and set it adrift." This highlights the use of ropes in navigation and the management of ships, a common practice in the ancient Mediterranean world.<br><br>5. <b>Metaphorical Use:</b><br> Ropes are sometimes used metaphorically in Scripture. In <a href="/ecclesiastes/4-12.htm">Ecclesiastes 4:12</a>, the strength of unity is illustrated with the imagery of a cord: "Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." This metaphor emphasizes the strength found in unity and companionship.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context:</b><br>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, ropes were typically made from materials such as flax, hemp, or other plant fibers. The process of making rope involved twisting fibers together to create a strong and durable line. Ropes were indispensable in daily life, used for tasks ranging from drawing water from wells to securing loads on animals.<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b><br>The use of ropes in the Bible often carries deeper theological meanings. They can represent human limitations and the need for divine intervention, as seen in the account of Samson. Conversely, ropes can also symbolize God's provision and protection, as in the escape of the spies from Jericho. The imagery of a strong cord in Ecclesiastes underscores the biblical principle of community and mutual support.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b><br>While ropes are a simple and practical tool, their presence in biblical narratives often points to larger themes of strength, deliverance, and unity. Through these accounts, believers are reminded of God's power to break the bonds of captivity and His call for unity among His people.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

See Cordage.<p>2. (<I>n.</I>) A row or string consisting of a number of things united, as by braiding, twining, etc.; as, a rope of onions.<p>3. (<I>n.</I>) The small intestines; as, the ropes of birds.<p>4. (<I>v. i.</I>) To be formed into rope; to draw out or extend into a filament or thread, as by means of any glutinous or adhesive quality.<p>5.

In neither word is any specified thickness or strength connoted, and chebhel is translated equally well by "line" (<a href="/2_samuel/8-2.htm">2 Samuel 8:2</a>, etc.) or "cord" (<a href="/joshua/2-15.htm">Joshua 2:15</a>, etc.), and `abhoth by "cord" (<a href="/psalms/118-27.htm">Psalm 118:27</a>, etc.), as best suits the context. Similarly in the New Testament the word schoinion, literally, "made of rushes" can mean the rope by which a boat is fastened (<a href="/acts/27-32.htm">Acts 27:32</a>) or small cords suitable for a whip (<a href="/john/2-15.htm">John 2:15</a>). The usual material for ropes was certainly flax (hemp), but the Egyptians, and so possibly the Hebrews, at times made ropes of leathern thongs.<br><br>See <a href="../c/cord.htm">CORD</a>; <a href="../l/line.htm">LINE</a>; SHIPS AND BOATS, III, 2.<br><br>Burton Scott Easton<p><a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/4979.htm"><span class="l">4979. schoinion -- a <b>rope</b> (made of rushes)</span></a> <br><b>...</b> a <b>rope</b> (made of rushes).
