It can imply a physical or moral deviation. Context: The Hebrew verb שׂוּג (sug) is a primitive root that conveys the idea of turning aside or moving away from a designated path. In the Old Testament, it is often used metaphorically to describe a spiritual or moral backsliding, where individuals or groups deviate from the covenantal path set by God. This term is not frequently used, but its implications are significant in the context of Israel's relationship with God, highlighting moments of unfaithfulness or rebellion. The concept of being "hedged in" suggests a restriction or boundary that is either self-imposed through disobedience or divinely imposed as a form of judgment or correction. The Berean Standard Bible reflects this usage in its translation, emphasizing the spiritual and moral dimensions of the term.
