It can also mean to adorn or decorate, suggesting the act of putting on ornaments or attire. This dual usage reflects both a physical and metaphorical sense of progression and beautification.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, adornment was significant, often symbolizing status, celebration, or preparation for a special event. The act of adorning oneself or others could indicate honor, respect, or readiness for a particular role or occasion. The concept of passing on or advancing also held importance, as it could relate to the passage of time, the progression of events, or the movement of people.<div
