It is used to describe objects that have been crafted with care and attention to detail, often implying a level of refinement or completion. In the context of the Bible, it can denote items used in daily life or in religious practices, emphasizing their quality and purpose.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, craftsmanship was highly valued, and items such as vessels were often made with great skill. These objects could be used in various settings, from domestic to religious. The process of polishing or smoothing an item was not only practical but also symbolic of purity and readiness for use. In a religious context, polished vessels might be used in temple rituals, signifying their sanctity and the care taken in worship practices.<div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">סַלָּח</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>ready to forgive, forgiving</b></font>; — <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">אַתָּה אֲדֹנָי טוֺב וְס</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/86-5.htm">Psalm 86:5</a> thou Lord art <em>king and forgiving</em>. <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>placable, ready to forgive <p>From <a href="/hebrew/5545.htm">calach</a>; placable: ready to forgive. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/5545.htm">calach</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>וְסַלָּ֑ח וסלח vesalLach wə·sal·lāḥ wəsallāḥ<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/psalms/86-5.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Psalm 86:5</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/psalms/86.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">אֲ֭דֹנָי ט֣וֹב <b> וְסַלָּ֑ח </b> וְרַב־ חֶ֝֗סֶד</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/psalms/86.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> are good, <span class="itali">and ready to forgive,</span> And abundant<br><a href="/kjvs/psalms/86.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> [art] good, <span class="itali">and ready to forgive;</span> and plenteous<br><a href="/interlinear/psalms/86-5.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> Lord are good <span class="itali">and ready</span> and abundant lovingkindness<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5546.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5546.htm">Strong's Hebrew 5546<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/vesallach_5546.htm">wə·sal·lāḥ — 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/5545.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="5545"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="5545" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/5546a.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="5546a"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="5546a" /></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>
