It can refer to something that is brought to its full measure or a space that is enclosed or completed. The word carries the connotation of something that is whole or entire, often used in contexts where completeness or fulfillment is emphasized.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of completion was significant, often associated with the fulfillment of God's promises or the completion of a task or period. Enclosures, such as those for livestock or property, were common in agrarian societies, symbolizing protection and provision. The idea of completion also ties into the Sabbath, a day of rest marking the completion of the creation week.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3615.htm">kalah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>completeness, perfection<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>purest (1).<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> II.
