It often conveys the idea of lacking discipline or control, whether in behavior, appearance, or spiritual condition. In the context of the Bible, it can refer to individuals or groups who are not adhering to God's commandments or societal norms.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, restraint and discipline were highly valued, both in personal conduct and in community life. The concept of being "unrestrained" was often associated with chaos and disorder, which were seen as contrary to the order and harmony that God intended for His people. The Israelites were called to live according to God's laws, which provided structure and guidance for righteous living.<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>long hair, locks<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>locks (2).<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> I. <font class="hebrew2">מֶּ֫רַע</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>leader</b></font> (?); — plural absolute <font class="hebrew2">בִּפְרֹעַ</font> <font class="hebrew2">מְּרָעוֺת</font> <a href="/interlinear/judges/5-2.htm">Judges 5:2</a> <em>for the leading of the leaders</em> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>A</sup> Be Bu and others, but uncertain; <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>B</sup> Symm, compare We<sup>Israel u.
