ra.mam describes rising upward or being set high, whether of moving beings or an exalted position.

Its clearest attested use is upward movement: the cherubim rise from the land and the wheels rise with them. It also describes persons or the LORD's right hand as elevated; the imperative in Numbers 17:10 is not independently identifiable in the loose English translation.

1. Rising upward in movement · dominant

   In Ezekiel 10:15, Ezekiel 10:17, and Ezekiel 10:19, Niphal plural forms occur where the living creatures rise and the wheels rise with them. In Ezekiel 10:19 the APB renders the scene, "The cherubim lifted their wings and rose from the land before my eyes."

2. Being elevated or held high · common

   In Job 24:24, a Qal perfect plural form stands in the contrast between being elevated briefly and then being brought low. In Psalm 118:16, the feminine singular active participle is used of the LORD's right hand; the APB renders the clause, "The right hand of the LORD is exalted."

   Job 24:24Psalm 118:16
3. Imperative occurrence with unclear translation link · rare

   Numbers 17:10 contains a Niphal imperative addressed to masculine plural hearers within the LORD's instruction to Moses about Aaron's rod and Israel's murmuring. The APB renders the instruction as "Put Aaron's rod back," but its whole-verse translation does not make this form's specific contribution identifiable.

   Numbers 17:10

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the Ezekiel passages, the APB uses "rose" for the upward movement of the cherubim and wheels; it uses "exalted" in Job 24:24 and Psalm 118:16. In Numbers 17:10, the translation’s wording does not isolate the imperative form.
