This term is used in various contexts, including the appointment of people to positions, the designation of times and places for meetings, and the establishment of covenants or agreements.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, appointments and designations were significant for maintaining order and fulfilling God's purposes. Leaders, priests, and prophets were often appointed by God or by other leaders to carry out specific roles.

The idea of divine appointment underscores the belief in God's sovereignty and His active role in guiding the affairs of His people.
