It often implies a transition from a state of activity or turmoil to one of peace and tranquility. In the context of biblical literature, it can refer to both physical descent and metaphorical or spiritual rest.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of rest was deeply significant, often associated with the Sabbath and the idea of divine rest after creation. The notion of descent could also be linked to the physical geography of the region, where descending from the mountains to the valleys was a common experience. Spiritually, descent and rest were seen as movements towards God’s peace and presence.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/5181.htm">nacheth</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to descend<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>deposed (1), deposit (1), descended (1), descending (1), put (1), stored (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">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>carry, come down, depose, lay up, place <p>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/5181.htm">nachath</a>;
