This verb is used in various contexts, including the counting of people or things, the assigning of tasks or roles, and the divine appointment of events or individuals.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, counting and numbering were significant for organizational and religious purposes. The census, for example, was a critical activity for military and administrative reasons. The concept of divine appointment is also deeply rooted in the Hebrew understanding of God's sovereignty, where God is seen as actively involved in the affairs of humanity, appointing leaders, and determining the course of events.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/4487.htm">manah</a><br><span
