Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "mush," the concept of departure or removal can be found in Greek words such as ἀφίημι (aphiēmi - Strong's G863), meaning to send away or leave, and ἀποχωρέω (apochōreō - Strong's G868), meaning to depart or withdraw.

Usage: The Hebrew verb "mush" primarily conveys the idea of movement, specifically the act of departing or withdrawing. It is often used in contexts where something is being removed or ceases to be present. This can refer to physical movement or metaphorical departure, such as the removal of God's presence or the cessation of a particular state or condition.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of presence and absence was significant, especially in relation to God's presence among His people. The verb "mush" would have been understood in the context of covenantal relationships, where God's presence was a sign of blessing and His withdrawal a sign of judgment or discipline. The physical and spiritual realms were closely linked, and the movement or removal of God's presence had profound implications for the community.
