It often conveys the idea of being elevated or exalted, whether in a physical, metaphorical, or spiritual sense. In the context of the Bible, it is frequently used to describe the greatness of God, His works, or His attributes.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, greatness was often associated with power, authority, and divine favor. The concept of greatness was not only applied to physical size or strength but also to moral and spiritual qualities. The use of "saggi" in the Hebrew Bible reflects the cultural understanding of God as the ultimate source of greatness and the one who bestows greatness upon individuals and nations according to His
