It can describe both physical trembling and a more metaphorical sense of fear or reverence. The term is used to depict the reaction of individuals or nature itself when confronted with the power and majesty of God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, physical expressions of emotion, such as trembling, were often seen as outward manifestations of inner experiences. Trembling could indicate fear, reverence, or the overwhelming presence of the divine. The Hebrew Bible frequently uses physical reactions to describe encounters with God or His messengers, emphasizing the profound impact of such experiences on human beings.<div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">רַ֫עַד</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>trembling</b></font>;
