It conveys a sense of absence or deficiency, often in a moral or spiritual context. The term can also imply idleness or inactivity, suggesting a cessation of effort or purpose.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of lacking or failing was often tied to one's relationship with God and adherence to His commandments. The Israelites were called to live in obedience and faithfulness, and any deviation from this path was seen as a failure or lack. The term "chadel" would have resonated with the community as a call to return to diligence and righteousness.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/2308.htm">chadal</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>forbearing, lacking<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>forsaken (1), refuses (1), transient (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">חָדֵל</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>forbearing, lacking</b></font>, <font class="hebrew2">הֶחָדֵל</font> as substantive <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/3-27.htm">Ezekiel 3:27</a> <em>he that forbeareth</em> (opposed to <font class="hebrew2">שׁמע</font>, compare <font class="hebrew2">חָדֵל</font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>Qal</b></font> near the end);
