It is often associated with the process of whitewashing, which involves applying a thin layer of lime-based substance to surfaces for protection and aesthetic purposes.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, lime was a common material used in construction and agriculture. It was used to plaster walls, seal cisterns, and even as a fertilizer. The process of whitewashing with lime was symbolic of purification and renewal, as it covered imperfections and provided a fresh appearance. This practice is reflected in various biblical texts, where whitewashing is sometimes used metaphorically to describe superficial or deceptive appearances.<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>lime, whitewash<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>lime (4).<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">שִׂיד</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>lime, whitewash</b></font>;
