It is often used to describe a person who is blameless or perfect in their conduct and character. This term is not necessarily about sinless perfection but rather about sincerity, wholeheartedness, and a life aligned with God's standards.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, being "tam" was highly valued as it denoted a person who lived in accordance with God's laws and was faithful in their relationship with Him. This concept was integral to the covenant relationship between God and Israel, where moral and ethical integrity was expected of God's people. The idea of being blameless or upright was not just about external adherence to laws but also about internal purity and devotion.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/8033.htm">sham</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>there<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>there (3), where* (1).<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">תַּמָּה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adverb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>there</b></font> (so Egyptian Aramaic (RÉS<sup>361B 5</sup> [also <font class="hebrew2">תנה</font><sup>A 4</sup>, so Cilician Aramaic, Cooke<sup>68. 5</sup>, compare Palmyrene <font class="hebrew2">תנן</font> ib.<sup>121. 3</sup>, Syriac <img src="/bdbgif/bdb111805.gif">] S-C<sup>A 4, J 6</sup>);
