This term is frequently used in the Old Testament to describe the chariots of Pharaoh, the chariots of Israel, and the chariots of God, symbolizing divine power and intervention.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Greek word "ἅρμα" (harma) refers to a chariot, a two-wheeled vehicle used in ancient times for war, transportation, and ceremonial purposes. In the New Testament, it is used metaphorically to describe the power and might associated with chariots.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient world, chariots were symbols of military strength and prestige. They were used by various civilizations, including the Egyptians, Assyrians, and Romans, as effective tools in warfare. Chariots were often drawn by horses and manned by skilled warriors, making them formidable in battle. In the Greco-Roman context, chariots also played a role in public games and processions, highlighting their cultural significance beyond the battlefield.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a chariot<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>chariot (3), chariots (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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 716: ἅρμα</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἅρμα</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἅρματος</span>, <span class="greek2">τό</span> (from <span class="greek2">ἈΡΩ</span> to join, fit; a team), <span class="accented">a chariot</span>: <a href="/interlinear/acts/8-28.htm">Acts 8:28f, 38</a>; of war-chariots (i. e., armed with scythes) we read <span class="greek2">ἅρματα</span> <span class="greek2">ἵππων</span> <span class="greek2">πολλῶν</span> chariots drawn by many horses, <a href="/interlinear/revelation/9-9.htm">Revelation 9:9</a> (<a href="/interlinear/joel/2-5.htm">Joel 2:5</a>.
