It is used in the Bible to describe both literal rivers and metaphorical streams, often symbolizing abundance, life, and divine provision. Rivers were crucial in the ancient Near East for agriculture, trade, and sustenance, making them a powerful symbol of God's provision and blessing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, rivers were vital for survival and prosperity. They provided water for drinking, irrigation for crops, and routes for transportation and trade. The significance of rivers in the biblical narrative is often tied to their life-giving properties and their role in God's creation and sustenance of the world. The Tigris and Euphrates, for example, are mentioned in the context of the Garden of Eden, highlighting their importance in the biblical worldview.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive
