It conveys a sense of power, authority, and sometimes impending danger. In the biblical context, it is often used metaphorically to describe the voice of God or the sound of His judgment.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the lion was a symbol of strength and majesty. The roar of a lion was both feared and respected, representing dominance and control over its territory. In the Hebrew Bible, the imagery of a lion's roar is used to communicate the overwhelming power and authority of God, as well as the fearsome nature of His judgments.<div class="vheading2">NAS
