The term "wafted" is not directly found in the Berean Standard Bible or other traditional translations of the Bible. However, the concept of being carried or moved gently by the wind or spirit can be seen in various biblical narratives and themes. The idea of wafting can be associated with the movement of the Holy Spirit, the gentle guidance of God, or the carrying of prayers and offerings to the divine.

Biblical Context and Themes

1. The Holy Spirit as Wind:
The Holy Spirit is often symbolized by wind in the Scriptures. In John 3:8 , Jesus explains to Nicodemus, "The wind blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit." This passage highlights the mysterious and sovereign movement of the Spirit, akin to the gentle wafting of the wind.

2. God's Guidance:
The concept of being wafted can also be seen in the way God guides His people. In Exodus 13:21 , it is written, "And the LORD went before them in a pillar of cloud to guide their way by day and in a pillar of fire to give them light by night, so that they could travel by day or night." Here, God's presence gently leads the Israelites, much like a wafting breeze directing a path.

3. Prayers and Offerings:
The imagery of prayers being wafted up to God is present in Revelation 8:4 : "And the smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the hand of the angel." This verse illustrates how prayers ascend to God, carried like incense smoke, symbolizing a gentle and pleasing offering to the Lord.

4. Divine Protection and Comfort:
The gentle nature of being wafted can also be associated with God's protection and comfort. In Psalm 91:4 , it is stated, "He will cover you with His feathers; under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and rampart." The imagery of being under God's wings suggests a gentle, protective presence, akin to being softly carried or wafted to safety.

Theological Implications

The concept of wafting, while not explicitly named in the Bible, aligns with the broader biblical themes of divine guidance, the movement of the Holy Spirit, and the ascent of prayers to God. It reflects the gentle, yet powerful, ways in which God interacts with His creation. The imagery of wafting underscores the subtlety and grace of God's actions, as well as the intimate relationship between the Creator and His people. Through the Holy Spirit, believers are gently led, comforted, and empowered to live according to God's will, much like a gentle breeze directing a path.(imp. & p. p.) of Waft.5140. nazal -- to flow, trickle, drop, distill
