It conveys the idea of new beginnings, hope, and the dispelling of darkness. The term is often metaphorical, symbolizing spiritual enlightenment and the revelation of truth.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, the concept of dawn was often associated with new beginnings and divine intervention. The dawn was seen as a time when the gods might reveal themselves or when significant events could occur. In the Jewish context, light and darkness are frequently used as metaphors for knowledge and ignorance, righteousness and sin, respectively. The dawn, therefore, represents the coming of divine truth and the hope of salvation.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>brightness, spec. daylight<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>daybreak (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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 827: αὐγή</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">αὐγή</span></span>, <span class="greek2">αὐγῆς</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span>, <span class="accented">brightness, radiance</span> (cf.
