It is used in the context of attempting to gain insight or foretell future events through supernatural means. This practice is often associated with pagan rituals and is explicitly condemned in the Hebrew Scriptures as contrary to the worship and reliance on the one true God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, divination was a common practice among various cultures, including the Canaanites, Egyptians, and Babylonians. It involved interpreting signs, omens, or using objects like arrows, entrails, or celestial bodies to predict the future or gain guidance. The Israelites were instructed to avoid such practices, as they were seen as relying on powers other than God. The Torah explicitly forbids divination in passages such as Deuteronomy 18:10-12, emphasizing the importance of seeking guidance from God alone.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to practice divination, observe signs<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>divination (1), divined (1), enchantments (1), indeed practice divination (1), indeed uses (1), interprets omens (1), practice divination (1), took as an omen (1), used divination (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> II.
