Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - ὅραμα (horama) - Strong's Greek 3705: Refers to a vision or sight, often used in the New Testament to describe divine revelations.

- ὅρασις (horasis) - Strong's Greek 3706: Another term for vision, emphasizing the act of seeing or the appearance itself.

Usage: The term "chizzayon" refers to a vision, often of a prophetic or divine nature. It is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe supernatural revelations given by God to His prophets. These visions often contain messages of warning, instruction, or future events, and are a means by which God communicates His will and purposes to His people.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, visions were a common way for God to reveal His plans and communicate with His prophets. Prophets like Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel received visions that were recorded in the Scriptures. These visions were not only for the immediate audience but also for future generations, providing insight into God's character and His redemptive plan for humanity. The cultural context of visions in the ancient Near East often involved symbolic imagery and required interpretation, which was sometimes provided by the prophet or through divine revelation.
