Strong's Lexicon qim: "Rising," "standing," or "establishment." Original Word: קִים Word Origin: Derived from the root קום (qum), meaning "to arise" or "to stand." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for the concept of "rising" or "establishing" is ἀνίστημι (anistēmi), Strong's Greek #450, which also means "to raise up" or "to stand." Usage: The term "qim" is used to denote the act of rising or standing, often in a figurative sense to imply establishment or confirmation. It can refer to the establishment of a covenant, the rising of a person to a position of authority, or the confirmation of a promise or prophecy. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of "rising" or "standing" was significant in both physical and metaphorical contexts. It often symbolized strength, authority, and the fulfillment of divine promises. The act of standing was associated with taking a position of leadership or responsibility, and the establishment of covenants was a central aspect of Israelite religious and social life.
