Usage: • The verb רָעַם (ra'am) is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe actions or events characterized by violent agitation or crashing. It can refer to natural phenomena such as thunder or metaphorically to describe tumultuous or disruptive events. Context: • רָעַם (ra'am) is a Hebrew verb that conveys the sense of violent movement or agitation. It is often associated with the sound and fury of a storm, particularly thunder, which is a common biblical metaphor for the voice or power of God. This term can also be used to describe the tumultuous upheaval of nations or the agitation of individuals. In the biblical context, רָעַם is used to illustrate the overwhelming and awe-inspiring power of divine intervention or judgment.

The imagery of thunder and crashing serves to emphasize the majesty and fearsome nature of God's presence and actions.
