It is used to describe the act of lifting or raising something up, as well as the state of being elevated or exalted. This can refer to physical objects, people, or abstract concepts such as status or power. In a spiritual context, it often denotes the exaltation of God or His attributes.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, height was often associated with power, authority, and divinity. High places were frequently chosen for altars and temples, symbolizing closeness to the divine. The concept of elevation was also linked to honor and prestige, both in human society and in the relationship between humanity and the divine. The use of "rum" in the Hebrew Bible reflects these cultural associations, emphasizing God's supreme authority and the honor due to Him.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span
