It is used to describe the physical ground or floor upon which people stand or structures are built. In the biblical context, it can also refer to the earth's surface or the bottom of the sea.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of the "floor" or "ground" was significant both practically and symbolically. Floors were often made of compacted earth or stone, serving as the foundation for homes and temples. The ground was also seen as a place of humility and submission, as people would often bow or prostrate themselves on the ground in acts of worship or supplication.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>floor<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>floor (8).<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> I. <font class="hebrew2">קַרְקַע</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>floor</b></font> (probably reduplication from a √ <font class="hebrew2">קרר</font>, or <font class="hebrew2">קור</font>;
