It is used to describe the love between individuals, such as familial love, friendship, and romantic love. Additionally, it is used to express the love of God for His people and the love that people are commanded to have for God and one another.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, love was not merely an emotion but an action and commitment. Ahavah often implied a covenantal relationship, reflecting loyalty and faithfulness. The concept of love in the Hebrew Bible is deeply intertwined with the idea of covenant, as seen in God's steadfast love (chesed) for Israel. Love was also a central theme in the teachings of the Torah, emphasizing the importance of loving God and one's neighbor.<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>a band, army<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>troops (7).<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">אֲגַף</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>band, army</b></font> (loan-word, originally <em>wing</em> of army; Assyrian <i><em>agappu</em></i>, Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">אגף</font>, <em>wing</em>.
