This action is typically related to the creation of wells, pits, or graves, and carries both literal and metaphorical significance.<br><br><b>Wells and Water Sources</b><br><br>One of the most prominent uses of "dug" in the Bible is in reference to the digging of wells. Wells were essential for survival in the arid regions of the Near East, providing necessary water for people, livestock, and agriculture. In <a href="/genesis/26-18.htm">Genesis 26:18</a>, we read about Isaac reopening the wells that had been dug during the time of his father Abraham: "Isaac reopened the wells that had been dug in the days of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham&#8217;s death, and he gave them the same names his father had given them" . This act of re-digging wells symbolizes the continuation of God's covenant blessings and the sustenance provided by Him.<br><br><b>Pits and Traps</b><br><br>The Bible also uses the imagery of digging in the context of pits or traps, often as a metaphor for deceit or danger. In <a href="/psalms/7-15.htm">Psalm 7:15</a>, it is written, "He has dug a hole and hollowed it out; he has fallen into a pit of his own making" . This verse illustrates the concept of retribution, where those who plot evil ultimately face the consequences of their own actions. The act of digging a pit is symbolic of the scheming and plotting that leads to one's downfall.<br><br><b>Graves and Burial</b><br><br>Digging is also associated with the preparation of graves. In the ancient world, burial practices often involved digging into the earth to create a resting place for the deceased. This is seen in <a href="/genesis/50-5.htm">Genesis 50:5</a>, where Joseph speaks of his father's burial: "My father made me swear an oath when he said, &#8216;I am about to die; you must bury me in the tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan.&#8217; Now let me go up and bury my father; then I will return" . The act of digging a grave is a reminder of the mortality of humankind and the hope of resurrection.<br><br><b>Metaphorical Uses</b><br><br>Beyond its literal applications, "dug" is used metaphorically in Scripture to convey spiritual truths. In <a href="/isaiah/5-2.htm">Isaiah 5:2</a>, the prophet describes God's care for His people using the imagery of a vineyard: "He dug it up, cleared the stones, and planted the finest vines. He built a watchtower in the middle and dug out a winepress as well. Then He waited for it to yield good grapes, but it produced only worthless fruit" . Here, the act of digging represents God's preparation and investment in His people, expecting them to bear good fruit.<br><br>In summary, the term "dug" in the Bible encompasses a range of meanings, from the practical necessity of wells to the spiritual implications of pits and graves. Each instance reflects a deeper theological message about God's provision, human responsibility, and the consequences of sin.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
