In Jewish tradition

In the Bible it often means the deepest inner rooms or hidden parts, of a cave, a ship, a building, or the body.

Interpretation. In Proverbs the "innermost parts" of the belly stand for a person's hidden inner life, and tradition says God sees what is hidden there.

Examples

  • Now David and his men were sitting in the innermost parts of the cave. (Prophets 1SA.24.4, JPS 1917) tree →
  • But Jonah was gone down into the innermost parts of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep. (Prophets JON.1.5, JPS 1917) tree →
  • The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. (Writings PRO.18.8, JPS 1917) tree →
