Context: The Hebrew verb מָצַץ (māṣaṣ) appears in the Old Testament to describe the act of sucking, typically in a literal sense. This term is used to convey the natural and instinctive action of drawing sustenance, often associated with infants. The imagery of sucking is employed to illustrate dependency and the provision of nourishment. In the Berean Standard Bible, the term is used in contexts that highlight the nurturing aspect of this action, emphasizing the relationship between the provider and the dependent. The act of sucking is a fundamental and life-sustaining process, symbolizing the intimate connection between the one who provides and the one who receives.
