Usage: The verb זָמַן (zāman) is used in the context of setting or fixing something, often in terms of time or purpose. It conveys the idea of making a deliberate decision or arrangement. Context: The Hebrew verb זָמַן (zāman) is a primitive root that appears in the Hebrew Bible with the primary meaning of "to fix" or "to appoint." This term is used to describe the act of setting something in place or determining a specific time or purpose. The concept of fixing or appointing is often associated with divine or authoritative action, where God or a leader sets a plan or time for an event or action. The usage of זָמַן in the Hebrew Scriptures underscores the importance of intentionality and purpose in the unfolding of events, reflecting a worldview where time and actions are seen as part of a divinely orchestrated plan. In the Berean Standard Bible, the term is translated in contexts that emphasize the deliberate and purposeful nature of God's actions or the actions of His people. The verb is not frequently used, but when it appears, it highlights the significance of preparation and the establishment of plans according to divine or authoritative will.
