It conveys a sense of power, control, and leadership, typically in a domestic or societal context. The word implies a hierarchical relationship where the "gebir" holds a position of respect and command.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern societies, the concept of a "lord" or "master" was integral to the social structure. The "gebir" would have been a figure of authority within a household or community, responsible for the welfare and management of those under his care. This role was often associated with patriarchal leadership, where the head of the family or tribe wielded significant influence and decision-making power.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1396.htm">gabar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>lord<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>master (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">גְּבִיר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>lord</b></font>, <a href="/interlinear/genesis/27-29.htm">Genesis 27:29</a>,37. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>lord <p>From <a href="/hebrew/1396.htm">gabar</a>;
