Usage
The Hebrew word "peah" primarily refers to the corner or edge of something. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it is often used to describe the corners of a field, the edges of a garment, or the sides of a structure. The term is significant in the context of agricultural laws, particularly in the commandment to leave the corners of the field unharvested for the poor and the stranger (Leviticus 19:9-10).
