It emphasizes the state of being dry, which can be literal, as in the physical dryness of land, or metaphorical, representing desolation or lack of life.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near East, the concept of dry land was significant both practically and symbolically. Practically, dry land was essential for agriculture, settlement, and survival. Symbolically, it often represented stability and order, in contrast to the chaos of the sea. The creation narrative in Genesis highlights the separation of dry land from the waters, underscoring the importance of "yabbesheth" in God's creative order.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3001.htm">yabesh</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>dry land, dry ground<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>dry ground (1), dry land (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">יַבֶּ֫שֶׁת</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> id., made by God's hands <a href="/interlinear/psalms/95-5.htm">Psalm 95:5</a>;
