In the context of ancient Israel, such villages were typically more vulnerable to attacks and invasions compared to walled cities. The term is used to describe rural areas that are open and unprotected, emphasizing a sense of exposure and simplicity.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, cities were often fortified with walls for protection against enemies. However, many smaller settlements, known as "perazah," were unwalled and located in the countryside. These villages relied on the surrounding agricultural land for sustenance and were often more peaceful, though they were also more susceptible to raids. The distinction between walled cities and unwalled villages highlights the varying degrees of security and lifestyle in ancient times.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an open region, hamlet<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>rural (1), unwalled villages (1), without walls (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">מְּרָזָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>open region, hamlet</b></font>;
