It is often used metaphorically to describe the radiance of God's presence or the illumination of His truth. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, "nur" can refer to both physical light and spiritual enlightenment.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, light was a powerful symbol of life, purity, and divine presence. The Hebrews, like their neighbors, understood light as essential for life and a representation of God's guidance and revelation. The concept of light is deeply embedded in the Hebrew Scriptures, often contrasting with darkness, which symbolizes chaos, evil, or ignorance.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive
