It is used to describe living creatures, life itself, and sometimes metaphorically to refer to prosperity or vitality. In the Old Testament, "chay" is often used to contrast with death, emphasizing the dynamic and active nature of life. It can also refer to the quality of life, such as in expressions of well-being or flourishing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, life was seen as a divine gift from God, and the concept of "chay" was deeply intertwined with the covenant relationship between God and His people. Life was not only a biological state but also a spiritual condition, reflecting one's relationship with God. The Israelites understood life as a blessing and a sign of God's favor, often associated with obedience to God's commandments and the resulting peace and prosperity.<div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I. <font class="hebrew2">חַי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>alive, living</b></font>; — <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ח</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/25-6.htm">Genesis 25:6</a> +; <font class="hebrew2">חָ֑י</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/3-20.htm">Genesis 3:20</a> +, <font class="hebrew2">חֵי</font> <a href="/interlinear/amos/8-14.htm">Amos 8:14</a> 15t.
