In the context of biblical literature, the term "absorbed" is not directly used in the Berean Standard Bible or other traditional translations. However, the concept of being absorbed can be understood through various scriptural themes and narratives that describe individuals or groups being deeply engaged, consumed, or engrossed in particular activities, thoughts, or spiritual states.

1. Absorbed in Worship and Devotion: The Bible frequently depicts individuals who are wholly absorbed in worship and devotion to God. For instance, King David exemplifies this in his psalms, where he often expresses a deep longing and focus on God. In Psalm 63:1 , David writes, "O God, You are my God; earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. My body longs for You in a dry and weary land without water." This verse illustrates a profound absorption in seeking God's presence.

2. Absorbed in Prayer: The New Testament provides examples of individuals absorbed in prayer. Jesus Himself often withdrew to solitary places to pray, demonstrating a deep engagement with the Father. In Luke 5:16 , it is noted, "Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray." This practice of being absorbed in prayer is also seen in the early church, as in Acts 1:14 , "They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers."

3. Absorbed in Sin: Conversely, the Bible also describes individuals who become absorbed in sinful behaviors or thoughts. In Romans 1:28-32 , Paul describes those who are consumed by unrighteousness, stating, "Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done." This passage highlights how being absorbed in sin leads to a life contrary to God's will.

4. Absorbed in the Word of God: The importance of being absorbed in the Word of God is emphasized throughout Scripture. In Psalm 1:2 , the blessed man is described as one whose "delight is in the law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night." This meditation signifies a deep, continuous engagement with God's Word, allowing it to permeate one's thoughts and actions.

5. Absorbed in the Work of the Lord: The apostle Paul encourages believers to be absorbed in the work of the Lord. In 1 Corinthians 15:58 , he writes, "Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor in the Lord is not in vain." This exhortation calls for a dedication and focus on serving God and advancing His kingdom.

6. Absorbed in Love: The Bible also speaks of being absorbed in love, particularly the love of God and love for others. In 1 John 4:16 , it is written, "And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him." This abiding in love reflects a life absorbed in the divine nature and character of God.

The concept of being absorbed, whether in worship, prayer, sin, the Word, work, or love, reflects a state of deep engagement and focus that significantly influences one's life and spiritual journey.(imp. & p. p.) of Absorb.
