Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root רָאָה (ra'ah), which means "to see" or "to look."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of sight in Hebrew, as expressed by רְאִית, can be related to several Greek terms in the New Testament, such as:

- ὄψις (opsis) [Strong's Greek 3799]: Refers to appearance or sight, similar to the Hebrew concept of visual perception.
- ὅρασις (horasis) [Strong's Greek 3706]: Denotes a vision or the act of seeing, often used in the context of prophetic visions.
- ὁράω (horao) [Strong's Greek 3708]: A verb meaning "to see," which parallels the Hebrew רָאָה (ra'ah).

These Greek terms reflect the continuity of the theme of sight and vision from the Hebrew Scriptures into the New Testament, underscoring the importance of seeing as both a physical and spiritual experience.

Usage: The word רְאִית is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote the concept of sight or appearance, often in the context of seeing something with one's eyes or perceiving a vision.

Context: רְאִית (re'it) is a noun in Biblical Hebrew that conveys the idea of sight or appearance. It is closely related to the verb רָאָה (ra'ah), which means "to see." This term is used to describe the act of seeing or the visual perception of an object or scene. In the context of the Hebrew Scriptures, רְאִית can refer to both physical sight and metaphorical or spiritual insight. The concept of sight is significant in the Bible, as it often symbolizes understanding, revelation, and divine communication. For example, in prophetic literature, visions are a form of divine sight granted to prophets, allowing them to perceive spiritual truths or future events. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) captures this nuance in its translation, emphasizing the importance of sight in both literal and figurative senses.
