These high places were typically located on hills or raised platforms and were used for both legitimate worship of Yahweh and idolatrous practices. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, "bamah" often carries a negative connotation due to its association with pagan worship and syncretism.Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, high places were common sites for religious activities. They were considered closer to the divine realm due to their elevation. In Israel, high places were initially used for worshiping Yahweh before the centralization of worship in Jerusalem. However, they became problematic as they were frequently associated with the worship of foreign gods and idols, leading to syncretism and idolatry. The prophets and reforming kings of Israel and Judah often condemned and destroyed these sites to purify the worship of Yahweh.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div>Word Origin of uncertain derivation Definition a high place NASB Translation heights (3), high place (19), high places (76), places (1), waves (1).<div align="center"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> בָּמָה104 noun feminine high place (√ apparently בום on account of firm ָ֯; compare Assyrian bâmâtê ZimBP 48, Moab. במת MI3, 27) — <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/48-35.htm">Jeremiah 48:35</a> 18t.; הַבָּמָ֫תָה <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/9-13.htm">1 Samuel 9:13</a>; plural בָּמוֺת <a href="/interlinear/numbers/21-19.htm">Numbers 21:19</a> 62t.; construct בָּֽמֳתֵי <a href="/interlinear/job/9-8.htm">Job 9:8</a>; <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/14-14.htm">Isaiah 14:14</a>; <a href="/interlinear/amos/4-13.htm">Amos 4:13</a>; בָּֽמֳו֯תֵי <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/32-13.htm">Deuteronomy 32:13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/58-14.htm">Isaiah 58:14</a>; <a href="/interlinear/micah/1-3.htm">Micah 1:3</a> (Ew§ 211 d Ges§ 87, 5 archaic feminine construct with retracted accent before monosyl. in poetry, bâm©-thê not b©m); suffix בָּמֹתַי <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/22-34.htm">2 Samuel 22:34</a> 3t.; בָּמוֺתַי <a href="/interlinear/psalms/18-34.htm">Psalm 18:34</a> 10t.; — 1 high place, mountain: בָּמוֺת יָעַר forest mountains <a href="/interlinear/micah/3-12.htm">Micah 3:12</a> = <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/26-18.htm">Jeremiah 26:18</a>; במות עולם ancient mountains <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/36-2.htm">Ezekiel 36:2</a>; במות ארנן <a href="/interlinear/numbers/21-28.htm">Numbers 21:28</a> (E poetry) 2 high places, battle-fields, the chief places of the land giving possession, victory, dominion: על במותיך on thy high places (Gilboa, the battle-field) <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/1-19.htm">2 Samuel 1:19</a>,25 (in <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/1-19.htm">2 Samuel 1:19</a> ᵐ5 has a doublet מֵתֶיךָ thy dead, see We Dr). a. of Israel: רכב על במתי ארץ ride upon the high places of the land <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/32-13.htm">Deuteronomy 32:13</a> & <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/58-14.htm">Isaiah 58:14</a> compare <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/33-29.htm">Deuteronomy 33:29</a>; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/18-34.htm">Psalm 18:34</a> = <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/22-34.htm">2 Samuel 22:34</a>; <a href="/interlinear/habakkuk/3-19.htm">Habakkuk 3:19</a>. b. of God: דרך על במתי ארץ tread upon the high places of the earth <a href="/interlinear/amos/4-13.htm">Amos 4:13</a> compare <a href="/interlinear/micah/1-3.htm">Micah 1:3</a>; במתי ים <a href="/interlinear/job/9-8.htm">Job 9:8</a>; עלה על במתי עב (aspiration of the king of Babylon) <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/14-14.htm">Isaiah 14:14</a>. 3 high places, as places of worship, at first on hills and mountains, later on artificial mounds or platforms, under green trees, and in cities; still later for the chapels erected thereon, and once apparently for a portable sanctuary (decked with diverse colours) <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/16-16.htm">Ezekiel 16:16</a>.
