However, the Greek term "Πλειάδες" (Pleiades) is used in other ancient Greek texts to refer to the same star cluster.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "Kimah" refers to the Pleiades, a cluster of stars in the constellation Taurus. In the Bible, it is often associated with the majesty and power of God as the Creator of the heavens. The Pleiades are used metaphorically to illustrate God's control over the cosmos and His ability to bind or loose the stars.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the Pleiades were recognized as a significant star cluster, often associated with agricultural seasons and navigation. The appearance of the Pleiades in the night sky marked important times for planting and harvesting. In the biblical context, the mention of Kimah underscores the belief in God's sovereignty over creation, as the stars were seen as part of His divine order.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a cluster of stars<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Pleiades (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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">כִּימָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> perhaps <font size="+1"><b>Pleiades</b></font> (see above; Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>; <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> <font class="hebrew2">כִּימָא</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ6</font> <img src="/bdbgif/bdb046506.gif">) — as made by <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">י</font>, <a href="/interlinear/amos/5-8.htm">Amos 5:8</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">כְּסִיל</font>), <a href="/interlinear/job/9-9.htm">Job 9:9</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">עָשׁ</font>, <font class="hebrew2">כְּסִיל</font>, <font class="hebrew2">חַדְרֵי תֵמָן</font>); and under his control, <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">מַעֲדַנּוֺת כ</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/38-31.htm">Job 38:31</a> ("" <font class="hebrew2">משְׁכוֺת כְּסִיל</font>). — (Stern<sup>Jüd.
