Berean Strong's Lexicon romam: Exaltation, elevation, height Original Word: רוֹמָם Word Origin: Derived from the root רוּם (rum), which means "to be high" or "to rise." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint (LXX) for similar concepts is ὕψος (hypsos), Strong's Greek #5311, which also denotes height or exaltation. Usage: The term "romam" is used to convey the concept of elevation or exaltation, often in a metaphorical sense. It can refer to the physical height of an object or place, but more frequently, it is used to describe the exalted status or honor of a person or entity, particularly in relation to God or His attributes. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, height and elevation were often associated with power, authority, and divine presence. High places were commonly used for worship, and the concept of being "lifted up" was synonymous with being honored or revered. The use of "romam" reflects this cultural understanding, emphasizing the greatness and majesty of God or the elevated status of individuals or nations under His blessing.
