Strong's Lexicon tachton: Lower, lowest, nether Original Word: תַּחְתּוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the root תַּחַת (tachath), meaning "under" or "beneath." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2737 (kato): Meaning "below" or "beneath," often used in the New Testament to describe lower parts or positions. Usage: The Hebrew word "tachton" is used to describe something that is lower in position or status. It often refers to physical locations, such as the lower parts of a structure or the earth. In a metaphorical sense, it can denote a lower status or rank. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, spatial orientation often carried symbolic meaning. The "lower" parts of a structure or the earth could symbolize humility, subservience, or foundational strength. The concept of "lower" versus "upper" was not only physical but also social and spiritual, reflecting one's position in society or before God.
