It is often used in contexts where something hidden is revealed or laid bare. This can refer to physical uncovering, such as removing a covering from an object, or metaphorical exposure, such as revealing intentions or plans.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of uncovering or exposing carried significant weight, often associated with shame or vulnerability. Clothing and coverings were not only practical but also symbolic of dignity and honor. To uncover someone or something could imply a loss of honor or a revelation of truth. This cultural understanding is reflected in various biblical narratives where uncovering is associated with judgment or revelation.<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>bare place<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>bulrushes (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">עָרָהע</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>bare place</b></font>;
