A border, rim, or panel-frame (on sacred furniture); also a stronghold or fortress
Misgeret is a noun built from the root sagar ('to close, shut'), and its meanings reflect different kinds of enclosure. In the tabernacle instructions of Exodus 25, it denotes the decorative rim or frame encircling the table of showbread, while in Solomon's temple the plural describes the ornate panels set into the bronze stands (1 Kgs 7:28-36). Spanish distinguishes these as 'marco' (frame) and 'paneles' (panels), while French uses 'cadre' and 'rebord.' A third, entirely different sense emerges in poetic texts: the stronghold or fortress from which nations emerge trembling before God (2 Sam 22:46; Mic 7:17), preserving the root idea of an enclosed, shut-in place but now applied to defensive fortifications.
1. panels or border-frames — Panels or decorative border-frames (plural) set into the sides of the bronze stands in Solomon's temple, often described alongside engravings of lions, oxen, and cherubim. The detailed architectural descriptions of 1 Kings 7:28-36 use this term repeatedly. Spanish 'paneles' and French 'panels' reflect the flat, framed surface character of these elements. 9×

2. frame or rim — A border, rim, or frame surrounding a sacred object, especially the ornamental border encircling the table of showbread in the tabernacle. Exodus 25:25 specifies a handbreadth-wide frame with a golden molding around it. Spanish 'marco' and French 'cadre' both capture the enclosing, framing function. The distinction from sense 1 is one of singular border versus multiple inset panels. 6×

3. stronghold or fortress — A stronghold, fortress, or enclosed place of refuge, from which people emerge trembling in awe of God. In 2 Samuel 22:46 and Psalm 18:45, foreign nations come quaking out of their strongholds, and Micah 7:17 compares them to reptiles crawling from their hiding places. Spanish uses both 'fortalezas' and 'escondites,' showing the range from military fortification to hiding place. 3×
