It conveys a sense of exuberant joy and is often associated with celebration and triumph. In the biblical context, it is used to express the joy of the righteous, the triumph of God's people, or the celebration of God's mighty acts.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, expressions of joy and exultation were often communal and involved singing, dancing, and music. Joy was seen as a response to God's deliverance, blessings, and presence. The Hebrew concept of joy was deeply rooted in the covenant relationship with God, where His faithfulness and acts of salvation were reasons for celebration.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/5937.htm">alaz</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>exultant, jubilant<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>jubilant (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">עָלֵז</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>exultant, jubilant</b></font>; as <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/5-14.htm">Isaiah 5:14</a>. <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>that rejoices <p>From <a href="/hebrew/5937.htm">alaz</a>; exultant -- that rejoiceth. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/5937.htm">alaz</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>וְעָלֵ֥ז ועלז veaLez wə‘ālêz wə·‘ā·lêz<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/isaiah/5-14.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Isaiah 5:14</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/isaiah/5.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">וַהֲמוֹנָ֛הּ וּשְׁאוֹנָ֖הּ <b> וְעָלֵ֥ז </b> בָּֽהּ׃ </span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/isaiah/5.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> her din <span class="itali">[of revelry] and the jubilant</span> within her, descend<br><a href="/kjvs/isaiah/5.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> and their pomp, <span class="itali">and he that rejoiceth,</span> shall descend<br><a href="/interlinear/isaiah/5-14.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> her multitude her din <span class="itali">and the jubilant</span><p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5938.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5938.htm">Strong's Hebrew 5938<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/vealez_5938.htm">wə·‘ā·lêz — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/5937.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="5937"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="5937" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/5939.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="5939"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="5939" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
