Usage: The term זֶרֶם (zerem) is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a powerful and overwhelming flow of water, such as a torrent or flood. It is often employed metaphorically to convey the idea of overwhelming force or judgment. Context: The Hebrew word זֶרֶם (zerem) appears in the Old Testament to depict a forceful and sudden rush of water, akin to a torrent or flood. This term is used to illustrate the overwhelming and sometimes destructive power of water, which can sweep away everything in its path. In the biblical context, זֶרֶם (zerem) is often used metaphorically to describe divine judgment or the overwhelming nature of God's power. For instance, in Job 24:8, the term is used to describe the plight of the poor who are drenched by the torrents of rain, highlighting their vulnerability and the harshness of their circumstances. The imagery of a torrent is also employed to convey the unstoppable and consuming nature of God's judgment, as seen in other scriptural passages.
