This term is used in the New Testament to describe physical and spiritual conditions of barrenness.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew word "tsachiach" is used to describe something that is dry or parched, often in the context of land or terrain. It conveys the idea of a lack of moisture, leading to a barren or desolate condition. This term is typically used in a literal sense to describe physical dryness but can also carry metaphorical implications of spiritual desolation or emptiness.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, where the climate is predominantly arid, the concept of dryness or parched land was a common experience. The Israelites, living in a region where water was a precious resource, would have been acutely aware of the implications of a land described as "tsachiach." Such conditions could lead to famine, hardship, and a reliance on divine provision for sustenance. The imagery of dry and parched land is often used in the Bible to symbolize spiritual barrenness and the need for God's refreshing presence.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6705.htm">tsachach</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a shining or glaring surface<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>bare (4), exposed places (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">צָחִיחַ</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>shining, glaring, surface</b></font> construct <font class="hebrew2">צְחִיחַ סֶלַע</font> i.e. a smooth, bare, rock <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/24-7.htm">Ezekiel 24:7,8</a>;
