However, the concept of food and provision can be related to Greek terms such as τροφή (trophe, G5160) meaning "food" or "nourishment."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "gebinah" refers to cheese, a dairy product made from the curdled milk of animals such as cows, goats, or sheep. In the biblical context, cheese was a common food item, valued for its nutritional content and ease of storage. It is mentioned in the context of hospitality and provision.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, cheese was a staple food, often made by curdling milk with natural rennet or acidic substances. It was a practical way to preserve milk, especially in a pastoral society where livestock was abundant. Cheese-making was a skill passed down through generations, and it played a role in the diet of both the wealthy and the poor. Cheese was often consumed with bread and wine, forming a simple yet nourishing meal.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/1384.htm">gibben</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>curd, cheese<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>cheese (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">גְּבִינָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>curd</b></font>, or <font size="+1"><b>cheese</b></font> (Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>, Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb014806.gif"> Ethiopic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb014807.gif"> Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">גּוּבְנָא</font>, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb014808.gif">, compare<img src="/bdbgif/bdb014809.gif">) — <font class="hebrew2">וְכַגְּבִינָה תַּקְמִּיאֵנִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/10-10.htm">Job 10:10</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">חָלָב</font>). <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>cheese <p>Feminine from the same as <a href="/hebrew/1384.htm">gibben</a>;
