It is used to describe the act of perceiving with spiritual insight or receiving divine revelation. This term is frequently associated with prophets who "see" visions from God, conveying messages that are not merely physical observations but spiritual insights or future events.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, prophets played a crucial role as intermediaries between God and the people. The ability to "see" visions or receive divine revelations was a hallmark of a prophet's calling. This was a time when written scriptures were not as accessible, and God communicated His will through chosen individuals. The act of "seeing" in this context was not just physical sight but a deeper, spiritual perception granted by God.<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 dream, rave<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>dreamers (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">הָזָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>dream, rave</b></font> (Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb022312.gif"> <em>talk deliriously</em>, Syriac <img src="/bdbgif/bdb022313.gif">, in Lexicons, <em>id.</em>, compare also Vrss; see especially Bo<sup>Hieroz. ii. 56; ed.
