==Etymology== The Government Naming Committee mentioned Psalm 118:5 ("I called upon YAH [the Lord, Hashem] in distress [mêṣar]; YAH answered me[, and set me] in a broad place"). Metzar or metsar has the meaning of something tight, and figuratively of trouble (distress, pain, strait, terrors etc.). The Naming Committee referred to the fact that the kibbutz bordered the territory of Jordan (holding the West Bank at the time), with the border being just 500 meters from the centre of the kibbutz represented by the dining hall.
