It can refer to physical depth, such as a deep pit or well, as well as metaphorical depth, such as deep thoughts or profound mysteries. In the biblical context, it often conveys the idea of something that is beyond human comprehension or requires divine insight.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, depth was often associated with mystery and the unknown. Deep waters, for example, were seen as places of chaos and danger, but also as sources of life and sustenance. In the Hebrew Bible, depth can symbolize both the unfathomable nature of God's wisdom and the hidden things that are revealed only through divine revelation.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6009.htm">amoq</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"deep," an Isr. priest<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Amok (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">עָמוֺק</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a priest</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/nehemiah/12-7.htm">Nehemiah 12:7</a>,20, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Αμουκ</font>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Amok <p>From <a href="/hebrew/6009.htm">amaq</a>;
