In the context of liquids, it refers to fermentation, as seen in the production of wine. The term can also describe the agitation or turmoil of emotions, such as anger or passion.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, wine was a common beverage, and its production was a significant part of daily life. The process of fermentation, described by "chamar," was well understood and symbolically associated with transformation and potency. The foaming or boiling of liquids was also a vivid metaphor for intense emotions, reflecting the dynamic and sometimes volatile nature of human experience.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/2561.htm">chemer</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>wine<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>wine (6).<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">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>wine <p>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/2561.htm">chemer</a>;
