Metaphysical meaning of Ozem (mbd)
Ozem, o'-zem (Heb.)--growing might; power of growth; strength; might; power; numerous; multitude; bones; body.
a Brother of David, and sixth son of Jesse (I Chron. 2:15). b A son of Jerahmeel of the tribe of Judah (I Chron. 2:25).
Meta. I AM strength, growing or increasing thoughts of I AM power or of the eternal existence of strength and power as fundamental principles of Being--of God and of man (Jesse, the father of the first-named Ozem, represents I AM, or eternal existence; see JESSE). There is also a thought of compassion and love closely associated with this idea of increasing strength and might, since David, brother of the one Ozem, means love- and Jerahmeel, father of the other man named Ozem, symbolizes the true idea of God as a loving, merciful, kind, compassionate Father, friend, and almighty resource. All this falls directly in line with our understanding that love, joy, and a constant holding to the good in all ways greatly increase man's consciousness of abiding power and strength, and aid their righteous expression in and through his organism.
