It is often used in the context of war, where individuals or groups are forcibly taken from their homeland and held in a foreign land. The word conveys a sense of loss, displacement, and subjugation.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, captivity was a significant theme, especially during periods of conquest and exile. The Babylonian Exile is one of the most notable instances of captivity in the Hebrew Bible, where the Israelites were taken to Babylon after the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BCE. Captivity was seen as both a physical and spiritual condition, often interpreted as a consequence of the nation's disobedience to God.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>(a precious stone) perhaps agate<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>agate (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> <font class="hebrew2">שְׁבוֺ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [feminine]</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a precious stone</b></font> (relation to above √ dubious;
