It conveys the idea of contention or strife that arises when individuals or groups vie against each other, typically for superiority or advantage.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, rivalry often emerged in familial and tribal contexts, where inheritance, leadership, and social standing were significant. The patriarchal society of ancient Israel placed a strong emphasis on lineage and birthright, which could lead to rivalry among siblings or between different family branches. This concept is reflected in various biblical narratives where competition and jealousy lead to conflict and division.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a corselet<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>coat of mail (2).<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">תַּחְרָא</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> probably (linen) <font size="+1"><b>corselet</b></font> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font><sup>Onk</sup> <font class="hebrew2">שריון</font>);
