It is often used in the context of agricultural settings, where it denotes a boundary or enclosure for vineyards, fields, or livestock. The term can also be metaphorical, symbolizing protection or division.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, walls and fences were crucial for the protection of property and livestock. They served as barriers against wild animals and thieves, and as markers of ownership and territory. The construction of walls was a significant aspect of community life, reflecting the need for security and order. In a broader cultural sense, walls also represented social and religious boundaries, delineating sacred spaces and community identity.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>the same as <a href="/hebrew/1447.htm">gader</a>, q.v.<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">גָּדֵר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font><sup>Ezekiel 42:7</sup> <font size="+1"><b>wall</b></font> (Late Hebrew <font class="hebrew2">גָּדֵר</font>, Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">גָּדֵירָא</font>, <font class="hebrew2">גְּדֵירָא</font>, Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb015405.gif">, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb015406.gif">, and more commonly <img src="/bdbgif/bdb015407.gif"> <em>enclosing-wall</em> compare Hebrew <font class="hebrew2">גְּדוֺר</font> below) — absolute <font class="hebrew2">גָּדֵר</font> <a href="/interlinear/numbers/22-24.htm">Numbers 22:24</a>;
