It is used in the context of creating boundaries, either for protection or demarcation. In the biblical context, it often signifies a division between sacred and common spaces or between different groups of people.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, walls were significant both in urban and rural settings. They provided protection from invaders and wild animals, marked property boundaries, and delineated sacred spaces such as the temple. The concept of a wall also carried metaphorical meanings, symbolizing separation between God and humanity due to sin, or the division between the Israelites and other nations.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a party wall<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>wall (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">חַ֫יִץ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>party-wall</b></font> (Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>, probably from Ezekiel <em>l. c.</em>) — <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/13-10.htm">Ezekiel 13:10</a>, according to Ki <font class="hebrew2">מחיצה גרועה</font> i.e. a thin or party-wall. <p><font class="hebrew2">חוק</font>, <font class="hebrew2">חיק</font> (√ of following;
