Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in Strong's Concordance is G3708 (ὁράω, horaó), which means "to see" or "to perceive." While the Greek term does not directly translate to "complete" or "finish," it is often used in the New Testament to describe the realization or fulfillment of prophetic visions or divine revelations, which can be conceptually linked to the idea of completion or fulfillment in a broader theological sense.

Usage: The verb נָלָה (naláh) is used in the Hebrew Bible to convey the action of completing or finishing a task or process. It is a term that signifies bringing something to its intended conclusion or fulfillment.

Context: The Hebrew verb נָלָה (naláh) is a primitive root that appears in the context of completing or finishing a task. This term is used to describe the act of bringing something to its full completion or intended end. In the Biblical narrative, the concept of completion is significant, often associated with the fulfillment of divine purposes or the completion of a covenantal promise.

The usage of נָלָה in the Hebrew Bible is relatively rare, and its occurrences are often tied to contexts where the completion of a task or process is emphasized. This can include the completion of construction, the fulfillment of a vow, or the accomplishment of a divine command.

In the broader theological context, the idea of completion is central to the understanding of God's work in creation and redemption. The completion of God's creative work is seen in the Genesis account, where God finishes the creation and rests on the seventh day. Similarly, the fulfillment of God's promises and the completion of His redemptive plan are themes that resonate throughout the Biblical narrative.
