In the biblical context, it symbolizes hope, renewal, and the emergence of something significant from a seemingly insignificant origin.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, the imagery of a branch or shoot was deeply rooted in agricultural practices and the natural world. It conveyed the idea of life, growth, and continuity. This metaphor was particularly powerful in a culture that valued lineage and heritage, as it suggested the continuation of a family line or the rise of a new leader from humble beginnings.<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>branch or twig, a rod<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>rod (1), shoot (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">חֹ֫טֶר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>branch or twig, rod</b></font> — metaphor absolute <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ח</font> <em>branch, twig</em>, <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/11-1.htm">Isaiah 11:1</a> <font class="hebrew2">מִגֶּזַע יִשָׁ֑י</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ויצא ח</font> "" <font class="hebrew2">(נֵצֶרׅ</font>;
