Berean Strong's Lexicon
shbiy: Captivity, captives, booty, spoil

Original Word: שְׁבִי
Part of Speech: noun masculine; Adjective; noun masculine; noun feminine
Transliteration: shbiy
Pronunciation: sheb-ee'
Phonetic Spelling: (sheb-ee')
Definition: Captivity, captives, booty, spoil
Meaning: exiled, captured, exile, booty

Word Origin: Derived from the root verb שָׁבָה (shabah), meaning "to take captive" or "to capture."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G161: aichmalōtos (αあるふぁἰχμάλωτος) - captive

- G162: aichmalōsia (αあるふぁἰχμαλωσία) - captivity

Usage: The term "shbiy" primarily refers to the state of being taken captive or the captives themselves. It can also denote the spoils or booty taken during warfare. In the Old Testament, it is often used in the context of military conquests where people and goods are captured and taken away by the victors.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, warfare was a common occurrence, and the taking of captives was a typical outcome of military victories. Captives could be used as slaves, traded, or integrated into the victor's society. The concept of captivity also held a theological dimension for the Israelites, as it was often seen as a consequence of disobedience to God, leading to exile and oppression by foreign powers.
