It conveys the action of shaping or forming by cutting, which can be both a literal and metaphorical process. In the Bible, it is used to describe the physical act of cutting or carving materials, as well as the figurative act of shaping or forming something, such as a nation or a people.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, stone and wood were common materials used in construction and craftsmanship. The act of hewing or cutting was essential for building altars, homes, and temples. Craftsmen skilled in "chatsab" were highly valued for their ability to transform raw materials into functional and artistic structures. This skill was not only practical but also held spiritual significance, as it was often associated with the preparation of sacred spaces.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span
