This term is used in the New Testament to describe the anointing of Jesus as the Messiah, the "Anointed One."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew verb "lashad" primarily means to moisten or to anoint. It is used in contexts where a liquid is applied to a surface, often for the purpose of consecration or preparation. The act of anointing is significant in biblical texts, symbolizing sanctification, blessing, or the setting apart of individuals or objects for a holy purpose.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, anointing with oil was a common practice for consecrating priests, kings, and prophets. It was a symbolic act that represented the Holy Spirit's empowerment and God's blessing. The use of oil in anointing was also associated with healing and hospitality. Anointing was a deeply spiritual act, reflecting the belief in God's presence and favor.<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>juice, juicy or dainty bit, a dainty<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>cakes baked (1), vitality (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">לָשָׁד</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>juice, juicy or dainty bit, dainty</b></font>;
