In the Hebrew Bible, it is used to denote women of royal status and authority. The word emphasizes the role and influence of a queen within the royal court and her potential impact on the kingdom.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, queens often held significant power and influence, both politically and socially. They could act as advisors to the king, manage court affairs, and sometimes even rule in the king's absence. The role of a queen varied depending on the kingdom and the specific historical context, but they were generally seen as integral to the stability and prosperity of the monarchy.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/4436.htm">malkah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>queen<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>queen (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">מַלְכָּה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>queen</b></font>;
