It is often used in the context of a peaceful or desirable abode, such as a pasture or a shepherd's dwelling. The term conveys a sense of tranquility and security, often associated with God's provision and care.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, the concept of a "naveh" would have been closely tied to the agrarian lifestyle of the people. Shepherds and farmers relied on fertile pastures and secure dwellings for their livelihood. The imagery of a peaceful abode would resonate deeply with a culture that valued land, family, and divine blessing. The term also carries spiritual connotations, symbolizing the presence and protection of God among His people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/4998.htm">naah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>comely, seemly<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>becoming (2), comely (1), fitting (3), lovely (4).<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">נָאוֶה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>comely, seemly</b></font>; — <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">נ</font> masculine <a href="/interlinear/songs/2-14.htm">Songs 2:14</a> 3t.; feminine <font class="hebrew2">נָאוָה</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/33-1.htm">Psalm 33:1</a> 4t., <font class="hebrew2">נָוָה</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/6-2.htm">Jeremiah 6:2</a>; — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1</b></font> <em>comely, beautiful</em>, of woman <a href="/interlinear/songs/1-5.htm">Songs 1:5</a>; <a href="/interlinear/songs/6-4.htm">Songs 6:4</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">יָפָה</font>) of face <a href="/interlinear/songs/2-14.htm">Songs 2:14</a> (<font class="hebrew2">מַרְאֶה</font>) so <font class="hebrew2">נָוָה</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/6-2.htm">Jeremiah 6:2</a> (figurative of Jerusalem; "" <font class="hebrew2">מְעֻנָּגָה</font>); of mouth <a href="/interlinear/songs/4-3.htm">Songs 4:3</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">שְׂפָתוֺת</font>). <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font> <em>seemly</em>, of praise <font class="hebrew2">תְּהִלָּה</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/33-1.htm">Psalm 33:1</a>; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/147-1.htm">Psalm 147:1</a>; subject <font class="hebrew2">שְׂפַתיֶֿתֶר</font> <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/17-7.htm">Proverbs 17:7</a> (compare <a href="/interlinear/songs/4-3.htm">Songs 4:3</a>); <font class="hebrew2">תַּעֲנוּג</font> Cant 19:10; <font class="hebrew2">כָּבוֺד</font> Cant 26:1.
