It is often used in imperative form, calling the community or individuals to praise the Lord. The word is closely associated with expressions of joy, celebration, and acknowledgment of God's greatness and deeds.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, praise was an integral part of religious life and community gatherings. The act of praising God was not only a personal expression of faith but also a communal activity that reinforced the identity and unity of the people. The Psalms, a central book in the Hebrew Bible, are filled with calls to praise, reflecting the importance of worship in Israelite culture. The use of musical instruments, singing, and dancing often accompanied these acts of praise, creating a vibrant and dynamic worship experience.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>the same as <a href="/hebrew/1976.htm">hallazeh</a>, q.v.<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">הַלֵּ֫זוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/36-35.htm">Ezekiel 36:35</a>(<em>feminine</em>) <font class="hebrew2">הָאָרֶץ הַלֵּ֫זוּ</font>. </p><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>this <p>Another form of <a href="/hebrew/1976.htm">hallazeh</a>; that -- this. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/1976.htm">hallazeh</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>הַלֵּ֙זוּ֙ הלזו hal·lê·zū halLezu hallêzū<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/ezekiel/36-35.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Ezekiel 36:35</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/36.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">וְאָמְר֗וּ הָאָ֤רֶץ <b> הַלֵּ֙זוּ֙ </b> הַנְּשַׁמָּ֔ה הָיְתָ֖ה</span><br><a href="/kjvs/ezekiel/36.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> And they shall say, <span class="itali">This</span> land<br><a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/36-35.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> will say land <span class="itali">This</span> desolate has become<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_1977.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_1977.htm">Strong's Hebrew 1977<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/hallezu_1977.htm">hal·lê·zū — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/1976.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="1976"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="1976" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/1978.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="1978"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="1978" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
