Usage: The term רֹכֶס is used in the context of a snare or trap, typically in a metaphorical sense to describe something that ensnares or entraps a person, leading to their downfall or capture. Context: The Hebrew word רֹכֶס (rokes) is a noun that appears in the Hebrew Bible to denote a snare or trap. It is derived from the root רָכַס (rakhas), which conveys the idea of binding or tying, suggesting the function of a snare as something that captures or holds fast. In biblical literature, snares are often used metaphorically to describe the dangers and temptations that can lead individuals away from righteousness or into peril. The imagery of a snare is powerful, evoking the sudden and often unexpected nature of entrapment. The use of רֹכֶס in scripture serves as a warning against the subtle and deceptive nature of sin and the importance of vigilance in maintaining one's spiritual integrity.
