It is used in contexts that involve making a hole or penetrating an object. This term can be applied both literally, in the sense of physically piercing an object, and metaphorically, in terms of penetrating or affecting deeply.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the act of piercing or boring was often associated with craftsmanship, such as the work of a smith or artisan. The ability to pierce or perforate materials like metal or wood was essential for creating tools, weapons, and other items necessary for daily life. Additionally, piercing could have symbolic meanings, such as marking ownership or servitude, as seen in the practice of piercing a servant's ear to signify lifelong service (Exodus 21:6).<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to suckle, nurse<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>nursed (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">נוּק</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> whence (si vera lectio) might come, <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Hiph`il</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>suckle, nurse</b></font>; — <em>Imperfect</em>3feminine singular suffix <font class="hebrew2">וַתְּנִיקֵ֫הוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/exodus/2-9.htm">Exodus 2:9</a>, but see <font class="hebrew2">ינק</font> and Ges<sup>§ 70e</sup>; read probably <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">וַתֵּינ</font> (Samaritan <font class="hebrew2">ותיניקהו</font>. <p><font class="hebrew2">נור</font> (√ of following; compare Late Hebrew <font class="hebrew2">נוּר</font>, <em>flame, fire</em> <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> <em>id.</em>; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb063205.gif">, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb063206.gif"> <em>give light, shine</em>, I.
