It is often used to describe actions, words, or objects that are futile, deceptive, or lacking in substance. In the context of the Ten Commandments, it is used to prohibit taking the Lord's name in vain, emphasizing the seriousness of using God's name with reverence and truthfulness.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of "shav" was significant in religious and ethical contexts. The Israelites were called to worship God in truth and sincerity, avoiding idolatry and falsehood. The use of "shav" in legal and religious texts underscores the importance of integrity and authenticity in one's relationship with God and others. The ancient Near Eastern context, with its plethora of deities and religious practices, made the call to avoid "shav" particularly relevant as a means of distinguishing the worship of Yahweh from surrounding pagan practices.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>emptiness,
