This concept appears in various contexts throughout the Scriptures, illustrating both physical and spiritual dimensions. Old Testament Context In the Old Testament, the idea of being seized is frequently associated with warfare and divine judgment. For instance, in the conquest narratives, the Israelites, under God's command, seized cities and lands as part of their inheritance. In <a href="/joshua/8-8.htm">Joshua 8:8</a>, the Lord instructs Joshua regarding the capture of Ai: "And when you have taken the city, set it on fire. Do as the LORD has commanded! See, I have given you orders." The term is also used in legal and ceremonial contexts. In <a href="/leviticus/14-51.htm">Leviticus 14:51</a>, during the cleansing of a house from leprosy, the priest is instructed to "take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet yarn, and the live bird, dip them into the blood of the slaughtered bird and the fresh water, and sprinkle the house seven times." New Testament Context In the New Testament, "seized" often describes the arrest of individuals, particularly in the context of Jesus' ministry and the early church. One of the most significant instances is the arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. In <a href="/matthew/26-50.htm">Matthew 26:50</a>, Jesus addresses Judas, saying, "Friend, do what you came for." Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him. The apostles also faced seizure and imprisonment as they spread the Gospel. In <a href="/acts/4-3.htm">Acts 4:3</a>, Peter and John are seized by the temple guards: "They seized Peter and John, and because it was evening, they put them in custody until the next day." Spiritual Implications Beyond the physical act, being seized can also have spiritual implications. It can symbolize the power of sin or evil taking hold of an individual. Conversely, it can represent the divine calling or the Holy Spirit's influence, as when God seizes the heart of a believer for His purposes. In <a href="/romans/7-23.htm">Romans 7:23</a>, Paul speaks of the struggle with sin: "But I see another law at work in my body, waging war against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me." This passage highlights the internal battle and the need for deliverance through Christ. Conclusion The concept of being seized in the Bible encompasses a range of meanings, from physical capture to spiritual influence. It serves as a reminder of the power dynamics at play in both the physical and spiritual realms, illustrating the need for divine intervention and the ultimate authority of God over all things.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(imp. & p. p.) of Seize.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/4912.htm">4912. sunecho -- to hold together, to hold fast, pass. to be ...</a> ... to be seized (by illness).
