Usage: The term נִיר is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a physical source of light, such as a lamp, as well as a symbolic representation of divine presence or guidance. It is often associated with the concept of illumination, both literal and spiritual. Context: The Hebrew word נִיר (nir) appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, primarily signifying a lamp or light. In ancient Israelite culture, lamps were essential for daily life, providing light in homes and places of worship. The lamp is frequently used as a metaphor for God's guidance and presence. For instance, in 2 Samuel 22:29, David declares, "For You, O LORD, are my lamp; the LORD turns my darkness into light." This verse highlights the symbolic use of נִיר as a representation of divine illumination and protection.
