It implies a position of power and responsibility, typically bestowed upon an individual or group to lead or manage others.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, authority and dominion were significant concepts, often associated with kingship, priesthood, and leadership roles within the community. The idea of divine authority was central to the Israelite understanding of governance, where leaders were seen as appointed by God to execute His will on earth. This concept is reflected in the theocratic nature of Israel's early governance, where religious and political authority were intertwined.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a family of Kiriath-jearim<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Mishraites (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> <font class="hebrew2">מִשְׁרָעִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective, of a people</b></font> (derivation unknown), only with article as collective noun <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">הַמּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/2-53.htm">1 Chronicles 2:53</a> <em>the Mishra`ites</em>, a family of Kirjath Jearim, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ἡμασαρειμ</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>L</sup> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Μασερεθι</font>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Mishraites <p>Patrial from an unused noun from an unused root;
