It conveys a sense of fear and domination, often associated with those who wield power unjustly or harshly.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near Eastern context, rulers and leaders often held significant power over their subjects. The term "Ariycay" reflects the reality of oppressive regimes and tyrannical leaders who exploited their authority for personal gain or to instill fear.
