It denotes a surrounding edge or ledge, typically found in descriptions of sacred or significant objects, such as altars or tables, within the tabernacle or temple.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, the construction and design of sacred spaces and objects were of paramount importance. The use of "karkob" in the context of the tabernacle or temple signifies the attention to detail and the importance of boundaries and order in worship practices. The rim or border served both a functional and symbolic purpose, delineating sacred space and ensuring the integrity of holy objects.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>border, rim (of an altar)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>ledge (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">כַּרְכֹּב</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>border, rim</b></font>, of altar (Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>);
