Topical Encyclopedia
The term "shivered" is not directly found in the Berean Standard Bible or other traditional translations of the Bible. However, the concept of shivering, which typically refers to trembling or shaking, can be associated with various biblical themes and narratives that involve fear, awe, or the physical response to divine encounters or extreme circumstances.

Biblical Context and Themes:

1. Fear and Trembling:
The Bible frequently describes individuals or groups experiencing fear and trembling in the presence of God or during significant events. This physical response can be akin to shivering, as it reflects a deep, visceral reaction to the divine or the overwhelming nature of certain situations. For example, in Philippians 2:12 , believers are encouraged to "work out your salvation with fear and trembling," highlighting the seriousness and reverence with which one should approach their faith.

2. Divine Encounters:
Encounters with God or His messengers often evoke a trembling response. In Exodus 19:16 , when God descends upon Mount Sinai, the people witness thunder, lightning, and a thick cloud, causing them to tremble. This reaction underscores the awe and reverence due to God's majestic presence.

3. Judgment and Prophecy:
Prophetic literature often describes nations or individuals trembling in anticipation of God's judgment. In Isaiah 64:2 , the prophet speaks of God's presence causing nations to tremble, illustrating the power and authority of God over all creation.

4. Human Frailty:
The Bible acknowledges human frailty and the natural response of fear in the face of danger or uncertainty. In Psalm 55:5 , David expresses his fear, saying, "Fear and trembling grip me, and horror has overwhelmed me." This passage reflects the human condition and the need for divine intervention and comfort.

5. Spiritual Reverence:
The concept of shivering can also be metaphorically linked to the spiritual reverence and humility required before God. In Hebrews 12:21 , the writer recalls the fearsome sight of Mount Sinai, stating, "The sight was so terrifying that even Moses said, 'I am trembling with fear.'" This highlights the appropriate response of humility and respect in the presence of God's holiness.

Conclusion:

While the specific term "shivered" may not appear in the biblical text, the associated themes of trembling and fear are prevalent throughout Scripture. These themes serve as reminders of the power and majesty of God, the seriousness of His judgment, and the appropriate reverence and humility required of His followers.
