It implies something of value that is strung together, much like pearls on a necklace. In the biblical context, it can symbolize beauty, wealth, or the meticulous arrangement of precious items.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, jewelry and adornments were significant indicators of wealth and status. Beads and jewels were not only decorative but also held cultural and sometimes religious significance. They were often used in trade and could be passed down as family heirlooms. The use of such items in biblical times reflects the broader cultural practices of the surrounding nations, where personal adornment was a common expression of identity and social standing.<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>string of beads<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>strings of beads (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">חָרוּז</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>string of beads</b></font>, only plural <font class="hebrew2">צַוָּארֵךְ בַּחֲרוּזִים</font> <a href="/interlinear/songs/1-10.htm">Songs 1:10</a> <em>thy neck</em> (is comely) <em>with strings of beads</em>. <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>chain <p>From an unused root meaning to perforate;
