It can also refer to "grain" or "field," indicating a sense of purity or something that is clean and unblemished. In some contexts, it conveys the idea of purity or cleanness, both physically and morally.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, lineage and heritage were of utmost importance, and the term "bar" was commonly used to denote a son or heir, signifying one's continuation of family legacy and inheritance. The agricultural aspect of the word, referring to grain or fields, reflects the agrarian society of ancient Israel, where farming and harvest were central to daily life and survival. The concept of purity was also significant in religious and social contexts, emphasizing the importance of being unblemished and set apart for God.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1247.htm">bar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>son<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>son (4).<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> I. <font class="hebrew2">בַּר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>son</b></font> (Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">בַּר</font>, Syriac <img src="/bdbgif/bdb013501.gif">) only in late Hebrew of <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/31-2.htm">Proverbs 31:2</a> (twice in verse) (both construct), <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/31-2.htm">Proverbs 31:2</a> suffix <font class="hebrew2">בְּרִי</font>; <font class="hebrew2">נשׁקו בר</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/2-12.htm">Psalm 2:12</a> <em>kiss the son</em>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ6</font> Modern Vrss Ges De Pe et al.; <em>receive instruction</em> <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font>; <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">δράξασθε</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">παιδείας</font> <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font>; <em>apprehendite disciplinam</em> <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ9</font> Ew; <em>kiss purely, do sincere homage</em> Aq Symm Jerome Br<sup>MP 136</sup>; emendation Lag <font class="hebrew2">נַשְּׁקוּ מוֺסֵרוֺ (מוֺסָרוֺׅ</font> <em>put on his bonds</em> (compare <a href="/interlinear/psalms/2-3.htm">Psalm 2:3</a>) so Kmp Che<sup>OP 351</sup>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>son <p>Borrowed (as a title) from <a href="/hebrew/1247.htm">bar</a>; the heir (apparent to the throne) -- son. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/1247.htm">bar</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>בְּ֭רִי בַ֡ר בַּר־ בר בר־ ברי bar ḇar bar- bə·rî Beri bərî var<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/psalms/2-12.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Psalm 2:12</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/psalms/2.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3"> נַשְּׁקוּ־ <b> בַ֡ר </b> פֶּן־ יֶאֱנַ֤ף ׀</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/psalms/2.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> Do homage <span class="itali">to the Son,</span> that He not become angry,<br><a href="/kjvs/psalms/2.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> Kiss <span class="itali">the Son,</span> lest he be angry,<br><a href="/interlinear/psalms/2-12.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> Do <span class="itali">to the Son</span> not become<p><b><a href="/text/proverbs/31-2.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Proverbs 31:2</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/proverbs/31.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3"> מַה־ <b> בְּ֭רִי </b> וּמַֽה־ בַּר־</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/proverbs/31.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> What, <span class="itali">O my son?</span> And what, O son<br><a href="/kjvs/proverbs/31.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> <span class="itali">What, my son?</span> and what, the son<br><a href="/interlinear/proverbs/31-2.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> What <span class="itali">son</span> What son<p><b><a href="/text/proverbs/31-2.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Proverbs 31:2</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/proverbs/31.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">בְּ֭רִי וּמַֽה־ <b> בַּר־ </b> בִּטְנִ֑י וּ֝מֶה</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/proverbs/31.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> And what, <span class="itali">O son</span> of my womb?<br><a href="/kjvs/proverbs/31.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> What, my son?
