It is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe the shining or glowing quality of light, whether literal or metaphorical. This term can refer to the physical brightness of celestial bodies or the metaphorical radiance of divine presence and glory.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, light was often associated with divine presence, purity, and truth. The concept of light as a symbol of God's glory and guidance is prevalent throughout the Hebrew Scriptures. The Israelites, living in a world where darkness was a significant part of daily life, would have understood "nogah" as a powerful representation of God's illuminating presence and the hope it brings.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/5051.htm">nogah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>brightness, daylight<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>break of day (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">נ֫גַהּ</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [feminine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>brightness, daylight</b></font> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> Syriac;
