It is often used in the context of war, where individuals or groups are taken as prisoners. The word can also denote the captives themselves, emphasizing their status and condition.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, including Israel, warfare often resulted in the capture of individuals who were then taken as slaves or hostages. This practice was common among nations and was a significant aspect of military conquests. The concept of captivity in the Hebrew Bible is not only a physical state but also carries spiritual and moral implications, often symbolizing the consequences of disobedience to God.<div
