It can refer to physical nakedness or metaphorically to a state of being exposed or defenseless.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, including Israel, nakedness was often associated with shame and dishonor. Clothing was a sign of dignity and social status, and to be stripped of one's garments was to be humiliated. In the biblical context, nakedness can also symbolize spiritual or moral exposure, where one's sins or shortcomings are laid bare before God or others.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6168.htm">arah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>nakedness<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>bare (4), bare* (1), nakedness (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">עֶרְיָה</font>6:00 AM <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>nakedness</b></font>; — always absolute <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ע</font>; — <font class="hebrew2">בּֿשֶׁת</font><font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ע</font> <a href="/interlinear/micah/1-11.htm">Micah 1:11</a> (in) <em>nakedness</em>, (in) <em>shame</em> (figurative of town Shaphir); of Jerusalem <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">עֵרֹם וְע</font> <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/16-7.htm">Ezekiel 16:7</a> 3t.
