The Hebrew word פֶּ֫גַע (pe.ga) is found only twice in the Bible and is translated as "chance". This definition suggests that the word conveys an idea of unexpected occurrence or an unforeseen event. It is likely that this term is used to describe an event that happens without deliberate intent or design. The limited occurrences of this word suggest that it is not a commonly used term in Hebrew, and its significance may be contextual to the specific passage where it is used. Further research would be necessary to understand its full range of usage and its relationship with other Hebrew terms, but based on this limited data, it appears to describe an unexpected event or a chance encounter.
