It is often used in contexts where there is a celebration of victory or a profound sense of joy and gladness. The term can imply a physical expression of joy, such as leaping or shouting, reflecting an intense emotional response.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, expressions of joy and triumph were often communal and public. Celebrations of military victories, religious festivals, and other significant events were marked by singing, dancing, and other forms of jubilant expression. The use of "alats" in the Hebrew Bible reflects this cultural context, where joy was not only a personal emotion but also a collective experience shared among the community.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to urge<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>urged (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">אָלַץ</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb Pi`el</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>urge</b></font> (Aramaic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb004901.gif">, Samaritan <img src="/bdbgif/bdb004901a.gif">) 3 feminine singular <font class="hebrew2">וַתְּאַלֲצֵהוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/judges/16-6.htm">Judges 16:6</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">הֵצִיקָה לוֺ בִדְבָרֶיהָ</font>). <p><font class="hebrew2">אַלְקוּם</font> see I. <font class="hebrew2">אַל</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>urge <p>A primitive root;
