It conveys the idea of something that is losing its vitality or integrity, akin to a plant that is withering away. In a broader sense, it can also refer to foolishness or moral degradation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the imagery of plants and their life cycles was commonly used to convey spiritual truths. The concept of withering or fading was often associated with the consequences of sin or disobedience to God. This metaphor would resonate with an agrarian society that understood the importance of healthy, thriving plants for sustenance and survival.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/5034.htm">nabal</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>immodesty, shamelessness<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>lewdness (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">נַבְלוּת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>immodesty, shamelessness</b></font>, <em>lewdness</em> of Israel under figure of adulteress <a href="/interlinear/hosea/2-12.htm">Hosea 2:12</a> <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>lewdness <p>From <a href="/hebrew/5036.htm">nabal</a>; properly, disgrace, i.e. The (female) pudenda -- lewdness. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/5036.htm">nabal</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>נַבְלֻתָ֖הּ נבלתה naḇ·lu·ṯāh naḇluṯāh navluTah<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/hosea/2-10.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Hosea 2:10</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/hosea/2.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">אֲגַלֶּ֥ה אֶת־ <b> נַבְלֻתָ֖הּ </b> לְעֵינֵ֣י מְאַהֲבֶ֑יהָ</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/hosea/2.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> I will uncover <span class="itali">her lewdness</span> In the sight<br><a href="/kjvs/hosea/2.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> And now will I discover <span class="itali">her lewdness</span> in the sight<br><a href="/interlinear/hosea/2-10.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> and then will uncover <span class="itali">her lewdness</span> the sight of her lovers<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5040.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5040.htm">Strong's Hebrew 5040<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/navlutah_5040.htm">naḇ·lu·ṯāh — 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/5039.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="5039"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="5039" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/5041.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="5041"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="5041" /></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>
