In the Bible, palm trees are often symbols of beauty, uprightness, and victory. The palm tree's ability to grow straight and tall in arid environments makes it a powerful symbol of resilience and steadfastness.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, palm trees were significant both economically and symbolically. They provided food (dates), materials for construction, and shade in the desert. Culturally, palm branches were used in celebrations and religious ceremonies, such as the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot). The palm tree's imagery is also associated with righteousness and flourishing, as seen in Psalm 92:12, "The righteous will flourish like a palm tree."<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>palm tree, post<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>palm tree (1), scarecrow (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">תֹּ֫מֶר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>palm-tree, post</b></font>;
