It signifies the pleasing aroma that ascends to God, symbolizing acceptance and satisfaction. The term is also used metaphorically to describe the character or reputation of a person or thing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, scents and aromas played a significant role in religious rituals and daily life. Incense and burnt offerings were integral to worship, symbolizing prayers and devotion rising to God. The "pleasing aroma" of sacrifices was a key element in the covenant relationship between God and His people, representing divine acceptance and favor. Aromas were also associated with purity and holiness, contrasting with the stench of sin and corruption.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7462b.htm">raah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>companion, attendant<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>companions (3).<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">רֵעָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>companion, attendant</b></font>;
