Strong's Lexicon nitstsah: Spark, glimmer Original Word: נִצָּה Word Origin: Derived from the root נָצַץ (natsats), meaning "to sparkle" or "to shine." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "nitstsah," related concepts of light and revelation can be found in Greek words such as φῶς (phōs, Strong's 5457), meaning "light," and ἀστραπή (astrapé, Strong's 796), meaning "flash" or "lightning." Usage: The Hebrew word "nitstsah" refers to a small, bright flash of light, often used metaphorically to describe something that is fleeting or momentary. It conveys the idea of a brief, shining moment, akin to a spark or glimmer. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, light and its manifestations were often symbolic of divine presence, guidance, and revelation. The imagery of a spark or glimmer would have been understood as a momentary but significant sign, possibly indicating divine intervention or insight. The use of light as a metaphor is prevalent throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, reflecting the importance of light in daily life and religious symbolism.
