It conveys the action of arranging or positioning an object or person deliberately. This verb is often used in contexts where something is being established or fixed in place, whether physically or metaphorically.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the act of setting or placing something was often significant, symbolizing order, purpose, and intention. The Hebrew people, living in a world where physical objects and their placement often had spiritual or symbolic meanings, would have understood "yashat" as an action that could denote authority, intention, or divine order. For example, setting stones for an altar or placing the Ark of the Covenant in the Holy of Holies were acts filled with religious significance.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to extend, hold out<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>extended (2), holds (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">יָשַׁט</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> only <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Hiph`il</b></font> <em>imperfect</em> extend, hold out (late) (Late Hebrew Hiph`il id.; Aramaic Aph`el <font class="hebrew2">אוֺשֵׁיט</font>, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb044501.gif"> <em>id.</em>; ?
