Strong's Lexicon cliq: To ascend, to go up, to rise Original Word: סְלִק Word Origin: Derived from the root סָלַק (salak), which means "to ascend" or "to go up." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for the concept of ascending is ἀναβαίνω (anabainō), Strong's Greek #305, which also means "to go up" or "to ascend." Usage: The Hebrew verb סְלִיק (cliq) is used to describe the action of ascending or going up. It can refer to physical movement, such as climbing a mountain or ascending to a higher place, as well as metaphorical or spiritual ascent, such as rising in status or moving closer to God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of ascending was often associated with drawing nearer to God, as seen in the practice of going up to Jerusalem for worship at the temple. The physical act of ascending a mountain or hill was symbolic of spiritual elevation and closeness to the divine. This idea is reflected in various biblical narratives and psalms that speak of going up to the house of the Lord or ascending to a place of worship.
