It is used in the Bible to describe the physical expanse above the earth, including the atmosphere and outer space. Additionally, "shamayim" is often used to denote the dwelling place of God, the spiritual realm where God resides, and where His throne is established. It can also refer to the abode of celestial beings and the place of eternal reward for the righteous.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew cosmology, "shamayim" was understood as a multi-layered expanse. The first heaven was the atmosphere where birds fly, the second heaven was the realm of the stars and celestial bodies, and the third heaven was considered the dwelling place of God. This understanding reflects the ancient Near Eastern view of the universe, where the heavens were seen as a dome over the earth. The concept of "shamayim" as God's dwelling place emphasizes His transcendence and sovereignty over creation.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>heaven, sky<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>astrologers* (1), compass (1), earth (1), heaven (191), heaven and the highest (2), heaven and the highest heavens (1), heaven of heavens (1), heavenly (3), heavens (151), heavens and the highest (1), highest heaven (1), highest heaven (1), highest heavens (4), horizons (1), other* (1), sky (50).<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">שָׁמַי</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font><sup>Deuteronomy 33:28</sup> only plural <font class="hebrew2">שָׁמַ֫יִם</font><sub>421</sub> (Sta<sup>§324 a</sup>) <font size="+1"><b>heavens, sky</b></font> (Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>; Assyrian <i><em>šamû</em></i> plural <i><em>šamê, šamûtu</em></i>, also <i><em>šamâmu</em></i>, compare Phoenician <font class="hebrew2">שמם</font>; Sabean <font class="hebrew2">סמה</font> Hom<sup>Chr 46, 124</sup>; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb102903.gif"> Ethiopic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb102904.gif"> Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">שְׁמַיָּא</font> <img src="/bdbgif/bdb102905.gif">; Palmyrene, Nabataean <font class="hebrew2">שמ(י)ן</font> in proper name (compounded with <font class="hebrew2">בעל</font>) Lzb<sup>153</sup> GACooke<sup>45</sup>; on plural form see Ba<sup>ZMG xiii (1888), 341 f.</sup>); — absolute <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">שׁ</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Genesis 1:1</a> +, <font class="hebrew2">מָ֑יִם</font>- <a href="/interlinear/genesis/2-4.htm">Genesis 2:4</a> +; <font class="hebrew2">הַשָּׁמַ֫יְמָה</font> <a href="/interlinear/exodus/9-8.htm">Exodus 9:8</a> +; construct <font class="hebrew2">שְׁמֵי</font> <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/10-14.htm">Deuteronomy 10:14</a> 9t.; suffix <font class="hebrew2">שָׁמֶיךָ</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/8-4.htm">Psalm 8:4</a> 2t., <font class="hebrew2">שָׁמָיו</font> <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/33-28.htm">Deuteronomy 33:28</a>, <font class="hebrew2">שְׁמֵיכֶם</font> <a href="/interlinear/leviticus/26-19.htm">Leviticus 26:19</a>, with verb plural, <a href="/interlinear/hosea/2-23.htm">Hosea 2:23</a>; — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1. a.</b></font> <em>visible heavens, sky</em>, where stars, etc., are <a href="/interlinear/judges/5-20.htm">Judges 5:20</a>; <a href="/interlinear/genesis/15-5.htm">Genesis 15:5</a> (J), <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/4-19.htm">Deuteronomy 4:19</a>; <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-14.htm">Genesis 1:14</a>,15,17 (P), hence <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">כּוֺכְבֵי הַשּׁ</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/22-17.htm">Genesis 22:17</a> (JE) = 9 t.
