Usage: The term דְּהַב is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament to denote gold, a precious metal highly valued for its beauty and rarity. It appears in contexts related to wealth, adornment, and the construction of significant objects or structures. Context: The Aramaic word דְּהַב (dehav) is found in the biblical books of Daniel and Ezra, which contain sections written in Aramaic. In these texts, gold is often mentioned in relation to the wealth and splendor of empires and rulers. For instance, in the book of Daniel, gold is used to describe the head of the statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream, symbolizing the Babylonian Empire's glory and power (Daniel 2:32, 38). Additionally, in Ezra, gold is listed among the materials used for the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem, highlighting its importance in religious and cultural contexts (Ezra 5:14). Gold, as a symbol of wealth and divine favor, plays a significant role in the biblical narrative. It is often associated with the opulence of royal courts and the splendor of sacred spaces. The use of gold in the construction of the tabernacle and temple underscores its significance in worship and its representation of God's majesty and purity.
