It can also imply striking or coming into contact with something or someone. The term is used in various contexts, including physical touch, reaching out, and metaphorical or spiritual contact.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of touch carried significant implications, both physically and ceremonially. Touching could convey blessing, healing, or defilement, depending on the context. For instance, touching a leper or a corpse rendered one ceremonially unclean, while the laying on of hands could signify blessing or the transfer of authority. The act of touching was deeply intertwined with the social and religious practices of the Israelites.<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 shine<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>gives...light (1), illumines (2), shed (1), shine (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">נָגַהּ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>shine</b></font> (Assyrian <i><em>nagû</em></i>, <em>shine</em>, <em>beam</em>, <em>be joyful</em>, Dl<sup>HWB 446</sup>;
