Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with visions is חָזוֹן (chazon), Strong's Hebrew 2377, which also refers to a vision or divine revelation.

Usage: The term "horama" refers to a supernatural vision or sight, often given by God to convey a message or revelation. It is used in the New Testament to describe instances where individuals receive divine insight or prophetic revelation through a visual experience.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient world, visions were considered a significant means of divine communication. Both in Jewish and Greco-Roman contexts, visions were often seen as a way for the divine to interact with humanity, providing guidance, warnings, or revelations about future events. In the biblical narrative, visions are a common method through which God communicates His will and purposes to His people.
