It is often used in a figurative sense to describe a position of humility or service, as one would sit or lie at the feet of another. This term can also imply a place of learning or discipleship, as students would sit at the feet of their teachers.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern culture, sitting at someone's feet was a common posture for learning and receiving instruction. It was also a position of submission and respect. This cultural practice is reflected in various biblical narratives where individuals are described as being at the feet of others, indicating a relationship of servitude, learning, or devotion.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/7272.htm">regel</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>place of the feet, feet<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>feet (5).<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">מַרְגְּלוֺת</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [feminine]</b></font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>plural denominative</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>place of the feet, feet</b></font> (compare [<font class="hebrew2">מְרַאֲשׁוֺת</font>] below I. <font class="hebrew2">ראשׁ</font>); &; suffix <font class="hebrew2">מַרְגְּםתָיו</font> <em>place of his feet</em> <a href="/interlinear/ruth/3-4.htm">Ruth 3:4,7</a>; adverb = <em>at his feet</em> <a href="/interlinear/ruth/3-8.htm">Ruth 3:8</a> + <a href="/interlinear/ruth/3-14.htm">Ruth 3:14</a> Qr (Kt <font class="hebrew2">מרגלתו</font>); = <em>his feet</em> <a href="/interlinear/daniel/10-6.htm">Daniel 10:6</a> (opposed to <font class="hebrew2">זְרֹעֹתָיו</font>). <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>feet <p>Denominative from <a href="/hebrew/7272.htm">regel</a>; (plural for collective) a footpiece, i.e. (adverbially) at the foot, or (direct.)
