It conveys the idea of something being used up or exhausted over time.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of decay or wearing out was often associated with the natural order of life and the inevitable decline of physical things. This understanding was rooted in the agrarian lifestyle of the Israelites, where the cycles of growth and decay were observed in nature. The term "belo" would have been familiar in the context of clothing, tools, and other items that wore out with use.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) of foreign origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>tribute<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>custom (2).<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">בְּלוֺ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>tribute</b></font> (loan-word from Assyrian <i><em>biltu</em></i>, √ <font class="hebrew2">ובל</font>, according to most modern;
