It conveys the idea of providing guidance or making plans with wisdom and foresight. This term is used in contexts where advice is sought or given, often implying a level of expertise or authority in the matter at hand.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, counsel and advice were highly valued, especially from elders, prophets, and leaders who were seen as wise and experienced. The act of giving counsel was not just about offering opinions but was deeply rooted in understanding God's will and applying it to life's situations. The Hebrew culture placed a strong emphasis on wisdom, and those who could provide sound advice were respected and sought after.<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 press, be pressed, make haste<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>hasten (1), hasty (2), hurried (1), hurries (1), makes haste (1), narrow (1), pressed (1), try (1), 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">אוּץ</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>press, be pressed, make haste</b></font> — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Qal</b></font> <em>Perfect</em> <font class="hebrew2">אָץ</font> <a href="/interlinear/joshua/10-13.htm">Joshua 10:13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/joshua/17-15.htm">Joshua 17:15</a>; <font class="hebrew2">אַ֫צְתִּי</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/17-16.htm">Jeremiah 17:16</a> <em>Participle</em> <font class="hebrew2">אָץ</font> <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/19-2.htm">Proverbs 19:2</a> 3t.
