Topical Lexicon Overview קָרַב (qarab) expresses movement toward closeness—physical, relational, or spiritual. Across approximately 284 Old Testament occurrences the verb underscores the possibility, privilege, and peril of “drawing near.” The contexts cluster around worship, priesthood, covenant, warfare, and eschatological proclamation, each strand enriching a biblical theology of access to God. Approaching God in Worship The opening call of the Levitical code, “When anyone among you brings an offering to the LORD…” (Leviticus 1:2), sets the tone: no Israelite could simply stroll into Yahweh’s presence; nearness required divinely-prescribed means. Burnt offerings (Leviticus 1), grain offerings (Leviticus 2), peace offerings (Leviticus 3), sin offerings (Leviticus 4), and guilt offerings (Leviticus 5–6) are introduced with forms of qarab, binding nearness to sacrificial blood and consecrated ritual. The progression of the worshipper—from outside the camp to the bronze altar, through priestly mediation to the Holy Place—visually dramatized the theological truth that access is granted, not assumed. Presentation of Offerings and Votive Gifts Qarab governs not only atoning sacrifices but also voluntary gifts of devotion. In Leviticus 7:38 Moses summarizes, “the LORD commanded the Israelites on Mount Sinai on the day He commanded them to present their offerings to the LORD.” The same verb appears when tribal chiefs “presented their offerings before the altar” at the dedication of the tabernacle (Numbers 7:10). Whether mandated or free-will, every gift brought near acknowledged the Giver’s prior grace. Priestly Mediation and Ordination Priests embody the principle of mediated nearness. “Then bring near to you your brother Aaron, and his sons with him, from among the Israelites” (Exodus 28:1). Their ordination (Exodus 29; Leviticus 8) features qarab over twenty times: the worshipper’s approach required a mediator who himself had been brought near by God. When Nadab and Abihu violated this privilege, “fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed them” (Leviticus 10:2), warning that unauthorized nearness invites judgment. Later, Korah’s rebellion pivoted on the same term: “the LORD… will bring him near to Himself; the one He chooses He will bring near” (Numbers 16:5). Qarab thus safeguards divine holiness and priestly calling. Nearness and Covenant Privilege The verb also celebrates covenant intimacy. Moses asks, “For what nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the LORD our God is near us whenever we call on Him?” (Deuteronomy 4:7). The Psalter personalizes the blessing: “Blessed is the one You choose and bring near, to dwell in Your courts!” (Psalm 65:4) and “But as for me, it is good to draw near to God” (Psalm 73:28). In these texts qarab moves from cultic formality to heartfelt fellowship, affirming that ceremonial nearness points to relational communion. Qarab in Warfare and National Life Covenant nearness shaped Israel’s military ethos. Before battle, “the priest shall come forward and address the army… ‘Hear, O Israel, today you are drawing near for battle against your enemies’ ” (Deuteronomy 20:2-3). The same root appears when troops “approached to engage in battle” (Judges 20:23; 1 Samuel 17:41). Israel fought not in autonomous strength but in proximity to the LORD of hosts. Conversely, the nations “approaching” to attack Zion (Isaiah 41:1; Jeremiah 46:3‐4) illustrate hostile nearness that God ultimately repels. Prophetic Announcements of Imminent Judgment or Salvation In the prophets qarab announces eschatological imminence. “Wail, for the Day of the LORD is near” (Isaiah 13:6); “the day is near, the day of the LORD is near” (Ezekiel 30:3); “Be silent… for the Day of the LORD is near” (Zephaniah 1:7). Malachi reverses the theme for covenant violators: “Then I will draw near to you for judgment” (Malachi 3:5). Thus qarab frames both doom for the unrepentant and hope for the faithful remnant: “Surely their redemption is at hand” (Psalm 111:9, using a cognate). Wisdom and Psalms: Nearness in Personal Piety Qarab punctuates wisdom literature’s call to godliness. The psalmist’s declaration, “The LORD is near to the brokenhearted” (Psalm 34:18), reveals that covenant nearness is not merely ceremonial but pastoral. Proverbs cautions against abuse of proximity: “Do not go near the door of her house” (Proverbs 5:8). Ecclesiastes urges reverence: “Guard your steps when you go to the house of God” (Ecclesiastes 5:1). The everyday disciplines of purity, repentance, and reverent fear are the avenue for drawing near. Christological Fulfillment The Mosaic pattern of qarab anticipates the once-for-all nearness secured in Jesus Christ. Hebrews repeatedly employs the cognate Greek verb (proserchomai) to expositionally link Old Testament approach with New Covenant reality: “Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence” (Hebrews 4:16); “let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith” (Hebrews 10:22). The sacrificial verb of Leviticus finds its telos in the perfect High Priest who “also suffered outside the city gate to sanctify the people by His own blood” (Hebrews 13:12). What qarab pictured, Christ accomplished, breaking the dividing wall so that “you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ” (Ephesians 2:13). Practical Ministry Implications 1. Worship leading: Public prayer and praise should consciously invite the congregation to “draw near” through Christ’s mediation, echoing Leviticus’ reverence and Hebrews’ confidence. Representative Occurrences • Genesis 20:4; 45:4 (relational approach) Summary קָרַב binds together the grand narrative of Scripture: humanity made to live near God, estranged by sin, and mercifully invited back through divinely-appointed mediation. From altar fires outside the tent to the torn veil in the temple, from battlefield priests to prophetic trumpets, every use of qarab threads toward the gospel call: “Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you” (James 4:8).
