It can also denote a pouch or bag used for carrying valuables or personal items. The term conveys the idea of something being gathered and secured, often for protection or safekeeping.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, including Israel, it was common to carry items in small bundles or pouches. These were often made of cloth or leather and used to store money, spices, or other valuable items. The concept of binding or bundling was significant in a society where travel and trade were prevalent, and securing one's possessions was essential.<div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I.
