It is often used in contexts where land, spoils, or responsibilities are being apportioned. The term can also imply a sense of smoothness or flattery, depending on the context.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, the division of land and resources was a significant aspect of maintaining tribal and familial structures. The concept of "chalaq" was integral to the distribution of the Promised Land among the tribes of Israel, as seen in the book of Joshua. This division was not only a practical necessity but also a fulfillment of divine promises. The act of dividing land or spoils was often accompanied by rituals or legal proceedings to ensure fairness and adherence to God's commands.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/2505b.htm">chalaq</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"smooth," a mountain S. of the Dead Sea<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Halak (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">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Halak <p>The same as <a href="/hebrew/2509.htm">chalaq</a>;
