Context: The Hebrew term עַשְׁתּוּת (ashtut) appears in the context of intellectual activity, specifically referring to the act of thinking or planning. Although the root עָשַׁת (ashat) is not directly used in the biblical text, its derivative, עַשְׁתּוּת, is understood to convey the idea of cogitation. This term is indicative of the mental processes involved in forming plans or strategies. The concept of cogitation is significant in biblical literature as it underscores the importance of thoughtful consideration and the role of the mind in decision-making and understanding. The Berean Standard Bible does not have a direct translation for this term, as it is not explicitly found in the canonical text. However, the concept is reflected in various passages that emphasize wisdom, understanding, and the importance of thoughtful reflection.
