It also carries the connotation of directing or instructing, which is foundational to the concept of teaching or giving guidance. This dual meaning reflects the idea of aiming or directing something towards a target, whether it be an arrow or instruction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, archery was a common skill, both for hunting and warfare. The act of shooting an arrow required precision and focus, which metaphorically extended to the act of teaching or giving instruction. The Torah, the central reference of the religious Judaic tradition, derives its name from this root, emphasizing the role of divine instruction as a guide for life.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/3293b.htm">yaar</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a desc. of Saul<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Jarah (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> II. <font class="hebrew2">יַעְרָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a descendant of Saul</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/9-42.htm">1 Chronicles 9:42</a> (twice in verse), probably corrupt, see <font class="hebrew2">יְהוֺעַדָּה</font> above <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>Jarah <p>A form of <a href="/hebrew/3295.htm">ya'arah</a>;
