It can also imply a trap or net, indicating a place where one might be ensnared. The term is used metaphorically in the Bible to describe God's protection or the security found in Him.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, fortresses and strongholds were critical for defense against enemies. These structures were often built on elevated terrain, providing a strategic advantage. They were places of refuge during times of war and were essential for the survival of a city or community. The imagery of God as a fortress reflects the cultural understanding of safety and security provided by such structures.<div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I. <font class="hebrew2">מְצוּדָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>net, prey</b></font>; — absolute <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">מ</font> <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/13-21.htm">Ezekiel 13:21</a>; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/66-11.htm">Psalm 66:11</a>; suffix <font class="hebrew2">מְצוּדָתִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/12-13.htm">Ezekiel 12:13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/17-20.htm">Ezekiel 17:20</a> ; — <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1</b></font> <em>net</em>, in figureof <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">י</font>s judgment, <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/12-13.htm">Ezekiel 12:13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/17-20.htm">Ezekiel 17:20</a> (both "" <font class="hebrew2">רֶשֶׁת</font>), <a href="/interlinear/psalms/66-11.htm">Psalm 66:11</a>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font> <em>prey</em> <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/13-21.htm">Ezekiel 13:21</a> (figurative). <p> II. <font class="hebrew2">מְצוּדָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>fastness, stronghold</b></font>; — absolute <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">מ</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/22-4.htm">1 Samuel 22:4</a> +, <font class="hebrew2">מְצֻדֶה</font> <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/5-9.htm">2 Samuel 5:9</a>, construct <font class="hebrew2">מְצֻדַת</font> <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/5-7.htm">2 Samuel 5:7</a>; suffix <font class="hebrew2">מְצוּדָתִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/18-3.htm">Psalm 18:3</a> +, <font class="hebrew2">מְצֻדָתִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/22-2.htm">2 Samuel 22:2</a>; plural <font class="hebrew2">מְצוּדוֺת</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/31-3.htm">Psalm 31:3</a>; — <em>fastness</em> of David, <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/22-4.htm">1 Samuel 22:4,5</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/24-23.htm">1 Samuel 24:23</a> (Gi v.1 Samuel 24:22) <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/5-17.htm">2 Samuel 5:17</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/23-14.htm">2 Samuel 23:14</a> = <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/11-16.htm">1 Chronicles 11:16</a>; read also <font class="hebrew2">מְצֻדַת עֲדֻלָּם</font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/22-1.htm">1 Samuel 22:1</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/23-13.htm">2 Samuel 23:13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/11-15.htm">1 Chronicles 11:15</a>, for <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ0</font> <font class="hebrew2">מְעָדַת</font> (see <font class="hebrew2">מְעָרָה</font> p. 1Chron 79:2b); of Jerusalem, <font class="hebrew2">מְצֻדַת צִיּוֺן</font> <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/5-7.htm">2 Samuel 5:7</a> = <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/11-5.htm">1 Chronicles 11:5</a>, compare <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/5-9.htm">2 Samuel 5:9</a>; home of eagle <a href="/interlinear/job/39-28.htm">Job 39:28</a> (+ <font class="hebrew2">שֶׁןסֶֿלַע</font>); elsewhere figurative of <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">י</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/18-3.htm">Psalm 18:3</a>=2Samuel 22:2; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/31-4.htm">Psalm 31:4</a>; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/71-3.htm">Psalm 71:3</a> (all + <font class="hebrew2">סַלְעִי</font>), <a href="/interlinear/psalms/91-2.htm">Psalm 91:2</a> (+ <font class="hebrew2">מַחְסִי</font>), <a href="/interlinear/psalms/144-2.htm">Psalm 144:2</a> (+<font class="hebrew2">חַסְדִּי</font>, but this dubious, Krochm Gr Che <font class="hebrew2">חִסְנִי</font>, Dy <font class="hebrew2">חִזְקִ</font>, Du <font class="hebrew2">סַלְעִי</font>; possibly is <font class="hebrew2">מַתְסִי</font>); also <font class="hebrew2">כֵּית מְצוּדוֺת</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/31-8.htm">Psalm 31:8</a>. <p>II. <font class="hebrew2">צוד</font> (√ of following; relation to I. <font class="hebrew2">צוד</font> dubious; compare Assyrian <i><em>sîdîtu</em></i>, Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb084501.gif"> (<img src="/bdbgif/bdb084502.gif">), Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">זְוָדָה</font>, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb084503.gif">, Palmyrene <font class="hebrew2">זוד</font>, all <em>provisions</em> (especially for journey); in Thes = I. <font class="hebrew2">צוד</font>; on <em>game</em> as early food of nomads see RS<sup>Semitic i. 205; 2nd ed. 222f.</sup> compare Doughty<sup>Arab.
