מַטָּרָה

The Hebrew word "mat.tarah" (Strong's number H4307) refers to a gate or doorway that serves as a guard or a means of surveillance. Its short definition, "Gate of the Guard," suggests a specialized entrance that controls access to a specific area. Given its semantic domain of Construction & Crafts, it's likely that mat.tarah is a term used in the context of building or architectural design. The limited occurrence of this word in the Bible, only once, suggests that it might be a technical term used in a specific situation or by a particular craftsman. The significance of mat.tarah lies in its indication of a controlled or guarded space, possibly an area with restricted access. This could imply that the area within the mat.tarah is valuable, sensitive, or requires close supervision.
