קָטַר
From LSJ
Γῆ πάντα τίκτει καὶ πάλιν κομίζεται → Tellus ut edit, ita resorbet omnia → Die Erde alles gebiert und wieder in sich birgt
English (Strong)
a primitive root (identical with קְטֻרוֹת through the idea of fumigation in a close place and perhaps thus driving out the occupants); to smoke, i.e. turn into fragrance by fire (especially as an act of worship): burn (incense, sacrifice) (upon), (altar for) incense, kindle, offer (incense, a sacrifice).
