Land was often passed down through generations and was a primary source of livelihood, especially in agrarian societies. The sale or purchase of land was a major transaction, often involving legal and social implications. In Jewish culture, land held covenantal significance, as it was tied to the promises given to Abraham and his descendants.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>5564</b> <i>xōríon</i> (the grammatical diminutive of <a href="/greek/5561.htm">5561</a> <i>/xṓra</i>, "a field") – a limited <i>parcel</i>, a <i>part</i> of a larger area; a confined piece of ground; "a definite portion of space that is viewed as enclosed, or complete in itself" (J.
