It can denote a literal opening, such as a hole or a breach, and is used to describe something that allows passage or visibility through a barrier.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of an opening or aperture was significant in both practical and symbolic terms. Openings in walls or structures were essential for ventilation, light, and access. Symbolically, openings could represent opportunities, revelations, or vulnerabilities. The physical and metaphorical implications of openings were understood in the context of daily life, architecture, and spiritual teachings.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) from <a href="/hebrew/5312.htm">nephaq</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an outlay<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>cost (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> [<font class="hebrew2">נִפְקָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>outlay</b></font>;
