It appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, often in lists, measurements, or descriptions of time and events. The numeral three is significant in Hebrew culture and often symbolizes completeness or divine perfection.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, numbers held symbolic meanings. The number three often represented completeness and stability. It is frequently associated with the divine, as seen in the three patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob) and the three pilgrimage festivals (Passover, Shavuot, and Sukkot). The use of the number three in the Bible often underscores the importance or sacredness of an event or concept.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word
