It can also metaphorically represent a deep spiritual longing or desire for God, as seen in various biblical passages. This dual usage highlights both the physical and spiritual dimensions of human existence.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the arid climate of the ancient Near East, water was a precious and often scarce resource. Thirst was a common and pressing concern, making the imagery of thirst a powerful metaphor in biblical literature. The Israelites' experiences in the wilderness, where they often faced physical thirst, provided a backdrop for understanding spiritual thirst and dependence on God.<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 be thirsty<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>became...thirsty (1), thirst (3), thirsted (1), thirsts (2), thirsty (3).<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">צָמֵא</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>be thirsty</b></font> (Late Hebrew = Biblical Hebrew (rare);
