In the context of the Bible, it is used to describe an instrument for dividing or cutting materials, likely wood or stone, as part of construction or craftsmanship.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, tools like the saw were essential for building and crafting. The use of a saw would have been common in the construction of homes, furniture, and religious structures. The craftsmanship of the Israelites was highly regarded, and tools like the migereth were vital for their work. The saw, as a tool, symbolizes precision and the ability to divide or separate, which can also have metaphorical implications in biblical literature.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1605.htm">gaar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a rebuke<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>rebuke (1).<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">מִגְעֶ֫רֶת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>rebuke</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/28-20.htm">Deuteronomy 28:20</a>. <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>rebuke <p>From <a href="/hebrew/1605.htm">ga'ar</a>; reproof (i.e. Curse) -- rebuke. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/1605.htm">ga'ar</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>הַמִּגְעֶ֔רֶת המגערת ham·miḡ·‘e·reṯ hammiḡ‘ereṯ hammigEret<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/deuteronomy/28-20.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Deuteronomy 28:20</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/28.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">הַמְּהוּמָה֙ וְאֶת־ <b> הַמִּגְעֶ֔רֶת </b> בְּכָל־ מִשְׁלַ֥ח</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/deuteronomy/28.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> confusion, <span class="itali">and rebuke,</span> in all<br><a href="/kjvs/deuteronomy/28.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> vexation, <span class="itali">and rebuke,</span> in all that thou settest<br><a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/28-20.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> curses confusion <span class="itali">and rebuke</span> all settest<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4045.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4045.htm">Strong's Hebrew 4045<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/hammigeret_4045.htm">ham·miḡ·‘e·reṯ — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/4044.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="4044"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="4044" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/4046.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="4046"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="4046" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
