Literally, it denotes the seed of plants, as used in agricultural contexts. Metaphorically, it extends to mean offspring or descendants, emphasizing lineage and posterity. This dual usage underscores the concept of continuity and the transmission of life, both physically and spiritually.Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, agriculture was central to daily life, making the concept of "zera" foundational. Seed was not only vital for sustenance but also symbolized potential and future growth. The idea of descendants was crucial in a patriarchal society where lineage determined inheritance, social status, and the fulfillment of divine promises. The Abrahamic covenant, for instance, heavily relies on the promise of numerous descendants (Genesis 15:5).<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div>Word Origin from <a href="/hebrew/2232.htm">zara</a> Definition a sowing, seed, offspring NASB Translation carnally* (1), child (1), children (3), descendant (3), descendants (105), descent (1), family (6), fertile (1), grain (3), intercourse* (2), line (1), nation (1), offspring (38), offspring's offspring (1), origin (1), posterity (1), race (1), seed (48), seedtime (1), seminal (4), seminal* (1), son* (1), time (1), what you sow (1).<div align="center"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> זֶ֫רַע noun masculineDeuteronomy 28:38 sowing, seed, offspring (Late Hebrew id., Aramaic זְרַע, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb028201.gif">;
