This term is used extensively in the New Testament to describe the glory of God, Christ, and the heavenly realm.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew word "ziv" primarily denotes brightness or splendor, often used to describe the radiance or glory associated with divine or royal presence. It conveys a sense of majesty and brilliance, reflecting the inherent beauty and magnificence of the subject it describes.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, light and brightness were often associated with the divine presence and favor. The concept of "ziv" would have been understood as a manifestation of God's glory or the honor bestowed upon a king or a sacred place. This reflects the broader Near Eastern tradition where light symbolizes purity, truth, and divine revelation.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/2099.htm">Ziv</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>brightness, splendor<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>face (4), splendor (2).<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">זִיו</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>brightness, splendour</b></font> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> <em>id.</em>, Syriac <img src="/bdbgif/bdb109103.gif">, perhaps loan-word from Assyrian <i><em>zîmu</em></i>, chiefly of <em>countenance</em>, Dl<sup>WB 252: Pr 152</sup> Nö<sup>ZMG xl (1886), 732</sup> Jen<sup>ZK ii. 43</sup> Brock<sup>Lex.
