It is used metaphorically to indicate a period of fruition or the culmination of growth. The term is often employed to signify readiness or the approach of a significant event, drawing on the imagery of the harvest as a time of gathering and completion.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the agrarian society of ancient Israel and the broader Mediterranean world, summer was a critical time for agriculture. It was the season when crops reached maturity and were harvested. The concept of harvest was deeply embedded in the cultural and religious life of the people, symbolizing both physical sustenance and spiritual truths. The harvest was a time of joy and thanksgiving, as well as a reminder of God's provision and faithfulness.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from theró (to heat)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>summer<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>summer (3).<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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 2330: θέρος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">θέρος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">θέρους</span>, <span class="greek2">τό</span> (<span class="greek2">θέρω</span> to heat), <span class="accented">summer</span>: <a href="/interlinear/matthew/24-32.htm">Matthew 24:32</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/13-28.htm">Mark 13:28</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/21-30.htm">Luke 21:30</a>.
