It can refer to physical elevation, such as the height of a mountain, or to the exalted status of a person or God. In a negative context, it can also imply pride or arrogance, where someone elevates themselves above others or above God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, height was often associated with power, authority, and divinity. Mountains were seen as places closer to the divine, and high places were often used for worship. The concept of being "high" or "exalted" was also linked to kingship and divine favor. However, excessive pride or self-exaltation was viewed negatively, as it was seen as a challenge to God's ultimate authority.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7311.htm">rum</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>on high<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>high (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">רוֺם</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adverb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>on high</b></font>, of direction (compare <font class="hebrew2">מָרוֺם</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font>) <font class="hebrew2">רוֺם יָדֵיהוּ נָשָׂא</font> <a href="/interlinear/habakkuk/3-10.htm">Habakkuk 3:10</a> (subject <font class="hebrew2">תְּהוֺם</font>). <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>on high <p>From <a href="/hebrew/7311.htm">ruwm</a>; elevation, i.e. (adverbially) aloft -- on high. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/7311.htm">ruwm</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>ר֖וֹם רום rō·wm Rom rōwm<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/habakkuk/3-10.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Habakkuk 3:10</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/habakkuk/3.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">תְּהוֹם֙ קוֹל֔וֹ <b> ר֖וֹם </b> יָדֵ֥יהוּ נָשָֽׂא׃</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/habakkuk/3.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> its voice, It lifted <span class="itali">high</span> its hands.<br><a href="/kjvs/habakkuk/3.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> [and] lifted up his hands <span class="itali">on high.</span><br><a href="/interlinear/habakkuk/3-10.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> the deep voice <span class="itali">high</span> hands lifted<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_7315.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_7315.htm">Strong's Hebrew 7315<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/rom_7315.htm">rō·wm — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/7314.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="7314"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="7314" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/7316.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="7316"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="7316" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
