It is used in contexts where individuals experience fear due to impending danger, divine judgment, or overwhelming circumstances. The term can also imply a reverential fear or awe, particularly in relation to God.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, fear was a common human experience, often associated with the presence of enemies, natural disasters, or divine encounters. The concept of fear in the Hebrew Bible is multifaceted, encompassing both the fear of God, which is seen as a positive, reverential awe, and the fear of worldly threats, which can lead to distress and anxiety. The Israelites were often reminded to fear God above all else, as this fear was foundational to wisdom and obedience.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to cast, throw, toss<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>cast (1), delivered (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">מָגַר</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>cast, throw, toss</b></font> (Aramaic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb055006.gif"> <em>lapsus est et cecidit</em> Lexicons;
