Strong's Lexicon arah: To uncover, to expose, to bare Original Word: אָרָה Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G601 (apokalypto): To uncover, reveal - G1562 (ekduo): To strip off, to take off Usage: The Hebrew verb "arah" primarily means to uncover or expose. It is often used in contexts where something hidden is revealed or laid bare. This can refer to physical uncovering, such as removing a covering from an object, or metaphorical exposure, such as revealing intentions or plans. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the act of uncovering or exposing was significant both in literal and metaphorical senses. Clothing and coverings were important for modesty and protection, so uncovering could imply vulnerability or shame. Metaphorically, uncovering could relate to revealing truth or intentions, which was crucial in a society that valued honesty and integrity.
