This term can be associated with craftsmanship, particularly in the making of garments or other woven items. It implies a skillful and deliberate action, reflecting the care and attention given to the task.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, weaving was a significant and respected craft, essential for producing clothing, tapestries, and other textiles. The process of weaving was often done by hand on looms, requiring skill and patience. The ability to create complex patterns was highly valued, and woven items could be symbols of status and artistry. The use of "shabats" in the Hebrew Bible reflects the importance of craftsmanship and the cultural appreciation for detailed and beautiful work.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>perhaps from <a href="/hebrew/7660.htm">shabats</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>perhaps cramp<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>agony (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">שָׁבָץ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> (meaning and connection with above √ dubious);
