It often conveys the idea of something that has endured over time, suggesting a sense of venerability or respect due to its age. In the context of the Bible, it can refer to people, objects, or concepts that have stood the test of time.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, age was often associated with wisdom and experience. Elders were respected for their knowledge and were often sought for guidance and leadership. The concept of something being "old" was not merely about chronological age but also about the accumulation of experience and the honor that comes with it.<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 move, proceed, advance<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>become old (1), continue (1), failed (1), moved (1), moved away (1), moves (1), proceeded (1), removes (1), transcribed (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">עָתֵק</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>move, proceed, advance</b></font> (Late Hebrew Hiph`il; Assyrian <i><em>etêku</em></i> as H., also transitive <em>bring, move</em>; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb080104.gif">, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb080105.gif"> <em>precede, pass forth, become free, grow old</em>; Aramaic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb080106.gif">, <font class="hebrew2">עֲתַק</font> <em>grow old</em>, Palmyrene adjective <font class="hebrew2">עתק</font> <em>old</em>); — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Qal</b></font> <em>Perfect</em>3feminine singular <font class="hebrew2">עָֽתְקָה</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/6-8.htm">Psalm 6:8</a>, 3plural <font class="hebrew2">עָֽתְקוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/21-7.htm">Job 21:7</a>; <em>Imperfect</em>3masculine singular <font class="hebrew2">יֶעְתַּק</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/14-18.htm">Job 14:18</a>; <a href="/interlinear/job/18-4.htm">Job 18:4</a>; — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1</b></font> <em>move</em> <font class="hebrew2">מִמְּקֹמוֺ</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">וְצוּר יֶע</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/14-18.htm">Job 14:18</a>, so <a href="/interlinear/job/18-4.htm">Job 18:4</a>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font> <em>advance</em> (in years; Aramaic sense) <a href="/interlinear/job/21-7.htm">Job 21:7</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">יִחְיוּ</font>); hence = grow old and weak <a href="/interlinear/psalms/6-8.htm">Psalm 6:8</a> (of eye, "" <font class="hebrew2">עָֽשְׁשָׁה</font>). <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Hiph`il</b></font> <em>Perfect</em>3plural <font class="hebrew2">הֶעְתִּיקוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/32-16.htm">Job 32:16</a> (Gi; van d.
