It conveys a sense of suddenness and intensity, typically associated with joy, singing, or shouting. This term is often used in the context of worship and celebration, where the people of God express their joy and gratitude through song and praise.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, music and singing were integral parts of worship and communal life. Expressions of joy and celebration were often marked by spontaneous outbursts of song and praise, reflecting the communal and participatory nature of worship. The use of "patsach" in the Hebrew Bible reflects this cultural context, where worship was not only a personal expression but also a collective experience of the community.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to cause to break or burst forth, break forth with<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>break (1), break forth (7).<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">מָּצַח</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>cause to break or burst forth, break forth with</b></font> (compare Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb082206.gif"> <em>break, crush</em>;
