It is often used to describe actions or conditions that are favorable, beneficial, or morally good. The verb can be used in various contexts, including physical well-being, moral goodness, or actions that are pleasing to God or others.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of goodness was deeply intertwined with one's relationship with God and adherence to His commandments. The idea of doing well or being good was not only a personal or moral pursuit but also a communal and covenantal responsibility. The Israelites were called to live in a way that was pleasing to God, reflecting His character and commands in their daily lives.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/3190.htm">yatab</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to be good or pleasing<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>good (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">יְטַב</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>be (good,) pleasing</b></font> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font>;
