It is often used metaphorically to describe a state of being unsettled or insecure, whether physically, emotionally, or spiritually. In the context of the Bible, it frequently refers to the instability of human life or the precariousness of human plans without divine support.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, stability and firmness were highly valued, especially in the context of one's relationship with God. The imagery of slipping or tottering would resonate with a society that understood the dangers of unstable ground, both literally and metaphorically. The concept of "mot" would remind the Israelites of their dependence on God for security and stability in all aspects of life.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span
