Another related Greek term is "νῆψις" (nepsis), which refers to sobriety or vigilance, often used in the New Testament to describe spiritual alertness.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew verb "Chadad" primarily conveys the idea of sharpness or keenness, both in a literal and metaphorical sense. It can refer to the physical sharpness of a tool or weapon, as well as the mental sharpness or alertness of a person. In the context of the Bible, it often implies readiness or preparedness, whether in battle or in spiritual vigilance.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, sharpness was a valued trait, whether in tools, weapons, or intellect. A sharp sword was essential for survival and defense, while a sharp mind was crucial for leadership and decision-making. The concept of sharpness also extended to spiritual readiness, as the Israelites were often called to be vigilant and prepared for God's instructions and interventions.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/2300.htm">chadad</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a son of Ishmael<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Hadad (2).<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">חֲדַד</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (on this and following compare Palmyrene proper name <font class="hebrew2">חדודן</font> Vog<sup>No. 96</sup>, Sabean <font class="hebrew2">חדד</font> Hal<sup>27</sup>); — a son of Ishmael <a href="/interlinear/genesis/25-15.htm">Genesis 25:15</a> (compare Baer's n.; van d.
