Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: A primitive root

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: G3182 (μεθύσκω • methusko): While not a direct translation, this Greek term can relate to the concept of overflow in the sense of being filled or saturated, often used in the context of intoxication or being overwhelmed by a substance. The idea of excess or abundance can be seen as a thematic parallel to the Hebrew שׁוּק (shuq) when considering the metaphorical use of overflow.

Usage: The verb שׁוּק (shuq) is used in the context of movement, often implying a sense of pursuit or overflow. It can denote the act of running after something or someone, as well as the idea of overflowing or exceeding boundaries.

Context: The Hebrew verb שׁוּק (shuq) appears in the Old Testament with a focus on dynamic movement and pursuit. It is a primitive root that conveys the action of running after or pursuing with intent. This term can also extend metaphorically to describe an overflow, suggesting an abundance or excess that surpasses normal limits.

In the context of biblical literature, שׁוּק is often associated with the pursuit of desires or goals, whether they be physical, spiritual, or metaphorical. The imagery of overflowing can also be seen in descriptions of abundance or divine provision, where blessings exceed expectations or limitations.

The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) provides a translation that captures the essence of this term in its various contexts, emphasizing the active and often relentless nature of pursuit or the overwhelming nature of overflow.
