It is used to describe the state of being consumed or brought to an end. This term can be applied in various contexts, such as the completion of a task, the end of a process, or the consumption of resources.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Hebrew context, the concept of completion was significant in both religious and everyday life. The completion of a task or process often signified fulfillment of duty or divine purpose. In the agrarian society of ancient Israel, the idea of consuming resources until they were finished was a common experience, reflecting the cycles of planting and harvest.<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 shut, shut up<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>closes (1), latticed (2), shuts (1), shuttered (1), stops (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">אטם</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>shut, shut up</b></font> (Mishna <font class="hebrew2">אטם</font>, compare <font class="hebrew2">אוֺטֶם</font> <em>stoppage</em>, Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">אֲטַם</font>; Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb003201.gif"> <em>contract, stop</em>, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb003202.gif"> <em>fortress</em>; Assyrian <i><em>a‰amu</em></i>, in list of headgear, etc. = <em>turban</em>?
