This entry explores the different uses and theological implications of the term as found in the Bible.<br><br>1. <b>Deliverance and Rescue</b>: One of the primary uses of "plucked" in the Bible is in the context of deliverance or rescue. In <a href="/psalms/34-4.htm">Psalm 34:4</a> , David declares, "I sought the LORD, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears." The concept of being "plucked" from danger or distress is a recurring theme, emphasizing God's power to save and protect His people. Similarly, in <a href="/jude/1-23.htm">Jude 1:23</a>, believers are encouraged to "save others by snatching them from the fire," illustrating the urgency and necessity of spiritual rescue.<br><br>2. <b>Judgment and Removal</b>: "Plucked" is also used in the context of divine judgment and removal. In <a href="/jeremiah/12-14.htm">Jeremiah 12:14</a> , God speaks of uprooting or plucking out nations: "This is what the LORD says: 'As for all My wicked neighbors who seize the inheritance I gave My people Israel, I will uproot them from their lands, and I will uproot the house of Judah from among them.'" Here, the term signifies God's sovereign authority to remove nations from their positions due to their disobedience and sin.<br><br>3. <b>Metaphorical Usage</b>: The Bible often uses agricultural metaphors, and "plucked" is no exception. In the New Testament, Jesus uses the imagery of plucking in His teachings. In <a href="/matthew/12.htm">Matthew 12:1-2</a> , the disciples pluck heads of grain on the Sabbath, leading to a discussion on the law and mercy. This act of plucking grain becomes a teaching moment about the spirit of the law versus the letter of the law.<br><br>4. <b>Spiritual Implications</b>: The act of being "plucked" can also have spiritual implications, representing the believer's separation from sin and the world. In <a href="/colossians/1-13.htm">Colossians 1:13</a> , Paul writes, "He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son." This deliverance is akin to being plucked from a place of danger and brought into safety and light.<br><br>5. <b>Protection and Preservation</b>: In <a href="/zechariah/3-2.htm">Zechariah 3:2</a> , the Lord rebukes Satan and declares, "Is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire?" This imagery of being plucked from the fire underscores God's protective hand over His chosen ones, preserving them from destruction and refining them for His purposes.<br><br>The term "plucked" in the Bible, therefore, encompasses themes of deliverance, judgment, spiritual rescue, and divine protection. It serves as a powerful reminder of God's active involvement in the lives of His people, whether in rescuing them from peril or removing them from situations of sin and judgment.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
