The Anakim were descendants of Anak and were noted for their great size and strength. The term is often used to describe formidable opponents or challenges faced by the Israelites.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The Anakim were inhabitants of Canaan before the arrival of the Israelites. They were considered fearsome and powerful, contributing to the Israelites' initial fear of entering the Promised Land. The Anakim are often associated with other giant clans such as the Rephaim and the Nephilim. Their presence in the land of Canaan is significant in the narrative of Israel's conquest and settlement, symbolizing the daunting obstacles that the Israelites had to overcome with God's help.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to plummet<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>plumb line (3), vertical with a plumb (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">אֲנָךְ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>plummet</b></font> (compare words in cognate languages for <em>lead, tin</em>, etymology dubious, perhaps foreign; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb005911.gif"> (see Frä<sup>153</sup>) Syriac <img src="/bdbgif/bdb005912.gif"> Mandean <font class="hebrew2">אנכא</font>, Assyrian <i><em>anâku</em></i> Lyon<sup>Sargontexte 92</sup>; see Lag<sup>Arm.
