<p> '''''bun´d''''' ''''''l''''' : Represents in English [[Versions]] of the Bible the words <i> '''''ceror''''' </i> , from a verb meaning "cramp" "bind," etc. ( Genesis 42:35; 1 Samuel 25:29; Song of Solomon 1:13 ); <i> '''''cebheth''''' </i> , from a verb probably meaning "to grasp" (Rth 2:16); and δἐσμη , <i> '''''désemē''''' </i> , from δέω , <i> '''''déō''''' </i> , "to tie up," "bind," hence, literally "bundle," just as the English word is derived from "bind" ( Matthew 13:30 ); and πλῆθος , <i> '''''plḗthos''''' </i> , properly "multitude." The custom of binding up precious things in bundles (compare Song of Solomon 1:13 ) is the basis of the very interesting metaphor in 1 Samuel 25:29 : "The soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with [[Yahweh]] thy God," or perhaps better, "in the bundle of the living in the care of Yahweh" - an assurance of perfect safety. </p> | <p> ''''' bun´d ''''' ' ''''' l ''''' : Represents in English [[Versions]] of the Bible the words <i> ''''' ceror ''''' </i> , from a verb meaning "cramp" "bind," etc. ( Genesis 42:35; 1 Samuel 25:29; Song of Solomon 1:13 ); <i> ''''' cebheth ''''' </i> , from a verb probably meaning "to grasp" (Rth 2:16); and δἐσμη , <i> ''''' désemē ''''' </i> , from δέω , <i> ''''' déō ''''' </i> , "to tie up," "bind," hence, literally "bundle," just as the English word is derived from "bind" ( Matthew 13:30 ); and πλῆθος , <i> ''''' plḗthos ''''' </i> , properly "multitude."

<p> (צְרֹר, ''Tseror'; Δέσμη'' )'','' signifies any thing bound together and tied up for future disposal ( Song of Solomon 1:13; Matthew 13:30; Job 14:17). It is also used of a sum of money in a purse ( Genesis 42:35; Proverbs 7:20). (See Bag).
