It can denote the physical space between a person's arms and chest, symbolizing warmth, care, and affection. In the biblical context, it is frequently used to describe familial and intimate relationships, as well as the idea of being cherished or held closely.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern culture, the bosom was considered a place of safety and intimacy. It was common for children to be held in the bosom of their parents, symbolizing care and protection. The concept extended to other relationships, such as between spouses or close friends, where the bosom represented a space of trust and affection. This imagery is also used in biblical literature to convey God's nurturing and protective nature towards His people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word
