It conveys the idea of enduring or suffering under a burden. In the context of the Old Testament, it often refers to the act of carrying a physical load or bearing the weight of responsibility or suffering.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of bearing a burden was both a physical and a metaphorical reality. Physical labor was a significant part of daily life, and the ability to carry loads was essential for survival. Metaphorically, bearing burdens also referred to enduring hardships or responsibilities, whether imposed by others or taken on voluntarily. This concept is deeply embedded in the communal and covenantal life of Israel, where individuals often bore burdens for the sake of the community or in obedience to God's commands.<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 bear (a heavy load)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>bear (5), borne (1), carried (1), carry (1), drags (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">סָבַל</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>bear a heavy load</b></font> (Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>;
