It conveys the idea of something vast, mysterious, and beyond human reach or understanding. In the biblical context, it can symbolize chaos, danger, or the unknown, as well as the mighty power of God over creation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the sea was often seen as a symbol of chaos and disorder. The Israelites, primarily a land-based people, viewed the sea with a mixture of awe and fear. It represented the boundary of the known world and was often associated with the dwelling place of sea monsters or the abode of the dead. In the biblical narrative, God's control over the sea is a demonstration of His sovereignty and power over all 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>(ocean) deep<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>depth of the sea (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">צוּלָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>ocean-deep</b></font>; — <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/44-27.htm">Isaiah 44:27</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>deep <p>From an unused root meaning to sink: an abyss (of the sea) -- deep. <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>לַצּוּלָ֖ה לצולה laṣ·ṣū·lāh laṣṣūlāh latztzuLah<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/isaiah/44-27.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Isaiah 44:27</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/isaiah/44.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3"> הָאֹמֵ֥ר <b> לַצּוּלָ֖ה </b> חֳרָ֑בִי וְנַהֲרֹתַ֖יִךְ</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/isaiah/44.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> [It is I] who says <span class="itali">to the depth of the sea,</span> 'Be dried<br><a href="/kjvs/isaiah/44.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> That saith <span class="itali">to the deep,</span> Be dry,<br><a href="/interlinear/isaiah/44-27.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> says <span class="itali">to the depth</span> be dried your rivers<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_6683.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_6683.htm">Strong's Hebrew 6683<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/latztzulah_6683.htm">laṣ·ṣū·lāh — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/6682.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="6682"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="6682" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/6684.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="6684"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="6684" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
