בָּשָׂר bâsâr · H1320 · flesh, meat, body
Greek κρέας denotes specifically butcher's meat (flesh as food), while Hebrew בָּשָׂר has broader application covering body/flesh in general, kinship, and nakedness; the alignment reflects contexts where both languages reference flesh/meat, but κρέας is semantically narrower (culinary/sacrificial register) than בָּשָׂר's full semantic range.
