It can refer to the wings of a bird or the extremities of a garment. In biblical literature, it is sometimes used to symbolize protection, covering, or the presence of God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, wings were often associated with divinity and protection. The imagery of wings is prevalent in the Bible, symbolizing God's care and shelter over His people. The concept of being under God's wings is a powerful metaphor for divine protection and refuge, reflecting the cultural understanding of wings as symbols of safety and security.<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>body, self, height, elevation<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>alone (3), tops (1).<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">גַּף</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>body, self, height, elevation</b></font> (compare Late Hebrew <font class="hebrew2">גּוּף</font>) — singular suffix <font class="hebrew2">גַּמּוֺ</font> <a href="/interlinear/exodus/21-3.htm">Exodus 21:3</a> (twice in verse);
