# Qorban: The Hebrew Concept of Offering The Hebrew word *qorban* (קׇרְבָּן) denotes an "offering"—a gift or sacrifice presented within religious practice. With 80 occurrences throughout the Hebrew Bible, the term appears frequently enough to indicate its importance in Israelite religious life, though not so frequently as to dominate everyday language. The word's consistency across these instances suggests a stable, well-established religious concept rather than a term undergoing significant semantic evolution. The frequency of *qorban* in biblical texts reflects its central role in temple worship and religious observance. As a dedicated religious term appearing dozens of times, it clearly functioned as standard vocabulary for describing formal acts of devotion and sacrifice. The relatively high number of occurrences across different biblical books indicates that offerings were not peripheral to Israelite religious practice but rather a recurring, normative feature of how people engaged with their religious traditions. Without additional lexical data specifying particular types of offerings or contexts, the definition "offering" represents the broadest understanding: *qorban* designates something brought forward and presented as an act of religious significance. The term's persistence across the biblical corpus underscores that making offerings was a sustained and fundamental practice in ancient Israelite religious life.
