Strong's Lexicon marom: Height, high place, exalted place Original Word: מָרוֹם Word Origin: Derived from the root רוּם (rum), meaning "to be high" or "to rise." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - ὕψος (hypsos) - Strong's Greek 5311: Meaning height, high place, or exaltation. - ὑψόω (hypsoō) - Strong's Greek 5312: Meaning to lift up, exalt, or raise to a high position. Usage: The Hebrew word "marom" generally refers to a high or exalted place, both in a physical and metaphorical sense. It is used to describe physical elevations such as mountains or hills, as well as metaphorical heights, such as positions of power, honor, or divine majesty. In the context of God's attributes, "marom" often signifies His exalted nature and supreme authority. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, high places were often associated with worship and divine encounters. Mountains and elevated areas were considered closer to the heavens and thus more suitable for communing with deities. In Israelite religion, while some high places were used for idolatrous practices, the concept of God being "on high" emphasized His transcendence and sovereignty over creation.
