It can imply a physical or emotional state of being overwhelmed, discouraged, or losing strength. This term is often used in contexts where fear, distress, or divine judgment causes a person or group to lose courage or resolve.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the heart was considered the center of emotion, thought, and will. Therefore, when the heart "melts," it signifies a profound emotional or psychological impact, often due to fear or awe. This concept is prevalent in the context of warfare, divine encounters, or significant trials, where the strength and courage of individuals or nations are tested.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive
