However, as with any material goods, they could become worn out and lose their value. The use of "sechabah" in the Hebrew Bible reflects a cultural understanding of the transient nature of material possessions and the humility associated with items of low status.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/5498.htm">sachab</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a rag<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>clothes (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">סְחָבָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>rag, clout</b></font> (stuff <em>pulled</em> or <em>dragged about</em>;
