Usage: • The verb צוּד (tsud) is used in the context of hunting or capturing animals, as well as in the preparation or provision of food. It conveys the idea of lying in wait or strategizing to capture or provide.

Context: • The Hebrew verb צוּד (tsud) appears in various contexts within the Old Testament, primarily associated with hunting and the provision of food. It is often used to describe the actions of hunters who lie in wait to capture their prey. This term is also used metaphorically to describe the act of providing sustenance or victuals, as seen in the narrative of Jacob and Esau, where Esau is described as a skillful hunter (Genesis 25:27). The act of hunting and providing food was a significant aspect of ancient Near Eastern culture, reflecting both survival and skill. The term is also used in a broader sense to describe the preparation and provision of food, as seen in the story of Joseph, where provisions are made for the people during the famine (Genesis 42:25).
