It signifies the act of overlaying or the material used for such a purpose.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, the use of overlays was common in the construction of the Tabernacle and the Temple. Gold overlays were particularly significant, symbolizing purity, divinity, and the glory of God. The use of precious metals in religious artifacts underscored the sacredness and the divine presence associated with these objects. The practice of overlaying was not only functional but also symbolic, representing the beauty and holiness of God's dwelling place among His people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6823.htm">tsaphah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>(metal) plating<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>overlaid (1), overlaying (2), plating (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">צִמּוּי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>metal plating</b></font>;
