It often appears in the context of describing distant lands or territories that are separated by bodies of water. The term can also imply a sense of remoteness or isolation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near Eastern context, islands and coastal regions were significant for trade and cultural exchange. They were often seen as mysterious or exotic due to their separation from the mainland. The Israelites, primarily a land-based people, would have viewed these areas as distant and foreign, often associated with maritime powers like the Phoenicians.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. interj.<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>alas!<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>woe (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> III. <font class="hebrew2">אִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>interjection</b></font> (so in Rabb, see De<sup>Koh 197</sup> Wr<sup>Eccl 490</sup>) <font size="+1"><b>alas!</b></font> (late) <a href="/interlinear/ecclesiastes/4-10.htm">Ecclesiastes 4:10</a> <font class="hebrew2">אִי לוֺ</font> (written in <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ0</font> as one word) <em>alas</em> for him (Ew<sup>§ 309 c</sup>), the one, who falleth, etc. (i.e. who falleth alone) <a href="/interlinear/ecclesiastes/10-16.htm">Ecclesiastes 10:16</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>woe <p>Short from <a href="/hebrew/188.htm">'owy</a>; alas!
