However, the concept of weeping or lamentation can be found in Greek words such as κλαίω (klaio, Strong's G2799), meaning "to weep" or "to lament."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Bokim means "weepers" or "place of weeping." It is used in the Bible to denote a specific location where the Israelites wept after being rebuked by the Angel of the LORD for their disobedience.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Bokim is mentioned in the context of the early period of Israel's settlement in the Promised Land. After the death of Joshua, the Israelites failed to fully drive out the Canaanite inhabitants as commanded by God. This disobedience led to a divine rebuke delivered by the Angel of the LORD, causing the people to weep and offer sacrifices to the LORD at Bokim. This event underscores the recurring theme of Israel's struggle with faithfulness and obedience to God's commands.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>active participle of <a href="/hebrew/1058.htm">bakah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"weepers," a place in Pal.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Bochim (2).<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">בֹּכִים</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, of a location</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>near Bethel</b></font>, <font class="hebrew2">אלהַֿבֹּכִים</font> <a href="/interlinear/judges/2-1.htm">Judges 2:1</a>, <font class="hebrew2">בֹּכִים</font> <a href="/interlinear/judges/2-5.htm">Judges 2:5</a> (compare <a href="/interlinear/judges/2-4.htm">Judges 2:4</a>);
