Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from a root corresponding to the Hebrew זִיו (ziv), meaning "brightness" or "splendor."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1529 (εἰσάγω, eisagō): To bring in, introduce. Usage: The term זִיו is used in the context of describing a state of brightness or splendor, often metaphorically referring to cheerfulness or a radiant appearance. Context: The Aramaic word זִיו (ziv) appears in the context of the Old Testament, particularly in the book of Daniel. It is used to describe a state of brightness or splendor, often associated with a cheerful or radiant appearance. In Daniel 2:31, the term is used to describe the "splendor" of the great image seen in Nebuchadnezzar's dream: "As you watched, a great stone was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed them." The use of זִיו in this context emphasizes the majestic and awe-inspiring nature of the vision. The term conveys a sense of divine or royal majesty, often linked to the presence of God or the manifestation of His glory. In a broader theological context, זִיו can be understood as reflecting the inherent beauty and radiance of God's creation, as well as the joy and cheerfulness that come from being in His presence.
