entrenched

adjective

«entrenched» in the English dictionary: in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

In Jewish tradition

It means a besieged or fortified city, as in the Psalm. God shows kindness even when a person is shut in with enemies all around.

Interpretation. Commentators suggest the psalmist felt as if hemmed in, and found God's care in the tight place. The verse is read as thanks for rescue in danger.

Meaning

Fixed in a strong position, or protected with ditches or walls. tree →

Examples

  • Blessed be the LORD; for He hath shown me His wondrous lovingkindness in an entrenched city. (Writings PSA.31.22, JPS 1917) tree →
