This is seen in passages like James 2:17 (BSB), "So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "ashuyah" refers to an action or deed, often highlighting the result or product of one's labor. It is used to describe the tangible outcomes of one's efforts, whether in a physical, moral, or spiritual sense. In the biblical context, it can refer to the works of God, human endeavors, or the deeds that reflect one's character and faith.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, actions and deeds were seen as reflections of one's character and faithfulness to God. The concept of "ashuyah" would have been understood as integral to one's identity and relationship with God. The Hebrew Scriptures often emphasize the importance of righteous deeds as evidence of a faithful life, aligning with the covenantal relationship between God and His people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>see <a href="/hebrew/806b.htm">asheyah</a>.<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">אָשְׁיָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>(support) buttress</b></font> (Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb007803.gif"> <em>column, support</em>, AW Nö<sup>M 113</sup>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> <font class="hebrew2">אוּשָּׁא</font>, plural <font class="hebrew2">אוּשָּׁיָיתָא</font>, <font class="hebrew2">אוּשְּׁוָותָא</font>) only plural suffix <em>buttresses</em> of city of Babylon <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/50-15.htm">Jeremiah 50:15</a> <font class="hebrew2">אשׁויתיה</font> Kt, <font class="hebrew2">אָשְׁיוֺתֶיהָ</font> Qr ("" <font class="hebrew2">חוֺמוֺתֶיהָ</font>).<p> [<font class="hebrew2">אָשְׁיָה</font>] </p><p style="sub1"> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>wall, bulwark</b></font> (Talmud <font class="hebrew2">אָשִׁיתָא</font> (Levy Nö);
