The duality in its meaning reflects the biblical understanding that material wealth can be both a blessing and a source of spiritual need.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, wealth was often seen as a sign of God's blessing, yet it also came with the responsibility to use it wisely and justly. The cry for help aspect of "shua" underscores the biblical theme of reliance on God, especially in times of distress or need. This duality is reflective of the broader biblical narrative that emphasizes both the blessings and responsibilities of material wealth.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7768.htm">shava</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a cry for help<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>cry out for help (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> II. <font class="hebrew2">שׁוּעַ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>opulence</b></font> ?
