1. branch — A branch or bough of a tree or plant. Greek κλάδος refers to the smaller branches growing from the main trunk or limbs, used both literally for tree branches and figuratively in the olive tree metaphor. In the Gospels, branches are cut and spread before Jesus during the triumphal entry (Matt 21:8; Mark 11:8) and feature in the parable of the mustard seed (Matt 13:32; Mark 4:32; Luke 13:19). In Romans 11:16-21, Paul uses κλάδος figuratively for the natural (Jewish) and grafted-in (Gentile) branches of God's olive tree. Spanish 'rama(s)' (branch/branches); Hindi डाली / डालियां (branch / branches); Arabic غُصنُ / الأَغصَانِ (branch / the branches); Korean 가지가 / 가지들을 (branch nominative / branches accusative); Swahili tawi / matawi (branch / branches, Bantu sg/pl class). S70730 (plural) and S70732 (singular) are number inflections of the same botanical term. 11×
