Overview:
The term "Shaketh" is not directly found in the canonical texts of the Bible. However, it may be related to the Hebrew root "shakak," which means to subside, abate, or diminish. This root is often used in the context of water subsiding or anger abating. Understanding the concept of "shaketh" involves exploring its potential implications and related themes within the biblical narrative.

Biblical Context:
While "Shaketh" itself does not appear in the Bible, the concept of subsiding or diminishing is present in several passages. For instance, in the account of Noah and the flood, the waters are described as subsiding after the deluge. Genesis 8:1-3 states, "But God remembered Noah and all the animals and livestock that were with him in the ark, and He sent a wind over the earth, and the waters began to subside. The springs of the deep and the floodgates of the heavens were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained. The waters receded steadily from the earth, and after 150 days the waters had gone down."

This passage illustrates the concept of "shaketh" in the sense of the waters diminishing, which signifies God's control over creation and His covenantal promise to Noah.

Theological Implications:
The idea of subsiding or diminishing can also be applied to the theme of divine wrath and mercy. Throughout the Bible, God's anger is depicted as something that can be kindled against sin but also something that can subside when repentance occurs. For example, in Psalm 85:3 , the psalmist acknowledges, "You withheld all Your fury; You turned from Your burning anger."

This reflects the belief in a God who is just and righteous, yet also merciful and willing to relent from sending calamity when His people turn back to Him. The subsiding of divine anger is a testament to God's patience and His desire for reconciliation with humanity.

Practical Application:
In a practical sense, the concept of "shaketh" can be applied to the Christian life as a call to allow God's peace to subside over personal turmoil and strife. Believers are encouraged to trust in God's sovereignty and to seek His peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Just as the waters of the flood subsided, so too can the storms of life diminish when one places their faith in God.

Conclusion:
While "Shaketh" is not a term explicitly found in the Bible, its conceptual roots are deeply embedded in the scriptural narrative. The themes of subsiding waters, diminishing anger, and the peace of God provide a rich tapestry for understanding how God interacts with His creation and His people. Through these themes, believers are reminded of God's power, mercy, and the hope of restoration.
