It is a word that appears in various contexts, illustrating the difference between human understanding and God's ultimate wisdom and plan. 1. Human Perception vs. Divine Reality: The word "seemed" frequently highlights the limitations of human perception. In <a href="/1_samuel/16-7.htm">1 Samuel 16:7</a>, the Lord instructs Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not see as man does. For man sees the outward appearance, but the LORD sees the heart." Here, what "seemed" right to human eyes was not aligned with God's choice, emphasizing the importance of divine insight over human judgment. 2. Decision Making: In <a href="/acts/15-28.htm">Acts 15:28</a>, during the Jerusalem Council, the apostles and elders write to the Gentile believers, "It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond these essential requirements." This passage illustrates the process of discernment in decision-making, where what "seemed" good was guided by the Holy Spirit, showing the necessity of seeking divine guidance in human decisions. 3. Perception of Events: In the narrative of Jonah, the prophet's reaction to God's mercy on Nineveh is described in <a href="/jonah/4.htm">Jonah 4:1</a>, "But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he became angry." Jonah's perception of the situation contrasts with God's compassionate character, highlighting the theme of divine mercy versus human expectation. 4. Moral and Ethical Judgments: <a href="/proverbs/14-12.htm">Proverbs 14:12</a> states, "There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death." This proverb warns against relying solely on human judgment for moral and ethical decisions, underscoring the necessity of aligning one's life with God's wisdom and commandments. 5. Faith and Trust: In the account of Abraham and Isaac, what "seemed" to be a dire situation was a test of faith. <a href="/genesis/22.htm">Genesis 22:1-2</a> recounts God's command to Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac, which seemed contrary to God's promise. Abraham's obedience demonstrated trust in God's plan, which ultimately led to a reaffirmation of God's covenant. 6. Cultural and Societal Norms: In the New Testament, the early church faced challenges in discerning what "seemed" appropriate in light of cultural and societal norms. <a href="/romans/14-5.htm">Romans 14:5</a> advises, "One person regards a certain day above the others, while someone else considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind." This passage encourages believers to seek personal conviction while respecting differing perspectives within the body of Christ. The use of "seemed" in Scripture serves as a reminder of the fallibility of human judgment and the necessity of seeking God's wisdom and guidance in all aspects of life.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(imp. & p. p.) of Seem.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/1380.htm">1380. dokeo -- to have an opinion, to seem</a> ... to seem NASB Word Usage deem (1), expect (1), has a mind (1), inclined (1), recognized (1), regarded (1), reputation (3), reputed (1), seem (3), seemed best (1 ... //strongsnumbers.com/greek2/1380.htm - 9k<a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/3190.htm">3190. yatab -- to be good, well, glad, or pleasing</a> ... 1), merry (3), pleasant (1), please (1), please the better (1), pleased (2), pleased* (9), pleases* (1), pleasing (2), prosper (4), reform (1), seemed good (2 ... /hebrew/3190.htm - 7k <a href="/hebrew/5869.htm">5869. ayin -- an eye</a> ... appearance (1), own eyes (1), please* (3), pleased* (14), pleases* (1), prefer* (2), presence (8), saw* (1), see (1), see* (1), seem (1), seemed* (1), selfish ... /hebrew/5869.htm - 7k <a href="/hebrew/8232.htm">8232. shephar -- to be fair or seemly</a> ...
