It is used to describe physical darkness, such as the darkness of night or a dark place. Metaphorically, it can represent ignorance, evil, judgment, or the absence of God's presence and favor.Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, darkness was often associated with chaos, danger, and evil. The Hebrew Bible reflects this understanding, frequently contrasting darkness with light, which symbolizes order, safety, and divine presence. In the creation narrative, God’s first act is to dispel darkness by creating light (Genesis 1:2-3), symbolizing His power to bring order and life.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div>Word Origin from <a href="/hebrew/2821.htm">chashak</a> Definition darkness, obscurity NASB Translation dark (5), darkness (73), obscurity (2).<div align="center"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> ח֫שֶׁךְ noun masculineExodus 10:21 darkness, obscurity — absolute חשֶׁךְ <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-2.htm">Genesis 1:2</a> 75t.
