However, the concept of mourning and weeping can be related to Greek words such as πενθέω (pentheō, Strong's G3996, meaning "to mourn") and δάκρυ (dakry, Strong's G1144, meaning "tear").<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Allon Bakuth refers to a specific location mentioned in the Bible, known as the "Oak of Weeping." It is the site where Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, was buried. The name reflects the mourning associated with her death.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, oaks were significant landmarks and often served as places of gathering or memorial. The burial of Deborah under an oak tree at Allon Bakuth highlights the cultural practice of using prominent natural features as markers for important events or burials. The act of naming the site "Oak of Weeping" underscores the deep sorrow felt by the community at the loss of a beloved figure.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/437.htm">allon</a> and <a href="/hebrew/1058.htm">bakah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"oak of weeping," a tree near the grave of Rebekah's nurse<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Allon-bacuth (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">בָּכוּת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>weeping</b></font>.
