The term "wrenched" is not directly found in the Berean Standard Bible , but the concept of something being forcibly twisted or pulled away can be seen throughout Scripture. This idea often conveys a sense of violence, distress, or significant change, both physically and spiritually.

Biblical Context and Usage:

1. Physical Force and Distress:
The concept of being wrenched can be associated with physical force or distress. In the Bible, physical struggles often symbolize spiritual battles or moral dilemmas. For example, Jacob's wrestling with the angel in Genesis 32:24-26 can be seen as a moment of intense physical and spiritual struggle. Although the term "wrenched" is not used, the narrative describes a forceful encounter that leaves Jacob with a limp, symbolizing a transformative experience.

2. Spiritual and Emotional Turmoil:
The idea of being wrenched can also apply to spiritual or emotional turmoil. In Psalm 22, David expresses feelings of being forsaken and in distress, akin to being wrenched from a place of security. Psalm 22:1 states, "My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?" This cry of anguish reflects a deep spiritual wrenching, a separation from God's presence that is later echoed by Jesus on the cross (Matthew 27:46).

3. Moral and Ethical Challenges:
The concept of wrenching can also be applied to moral and ethical challenges faced by believers. In Romans 7:24 , Paul exclaims, "What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?" Here, Paul describes the internal struggle with sin as a wrenching experience, highlighting the tension between the desire to do good and the reality of human weakness.

4. Divine Intervention and Deliverance:
The Bible also speaks of God intervening to wrench His people from danger or sin. In Colossians 1:13 , Paul writes, "He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of His beloved Son." This act of divine deliverance can be seen as God wrenching believers from the grip of sin and darkness, transferring them into the light of His kingdom.

5. Prophetic Imagery:
Prophetic books often use vivid imagery that can be associated with the idea of wrenching. In Ezekiel 17, the allegory of the two eagles and the vine involves the uprooting and replanting of a vine, symbolizing the wrenching of Israel from its land due to disobedience and the hope of restoration.

Theological Implications:

The concept of being wrenched in a biblical sense often involves a transition from one state to another, whether it be from sin to righteousness, despair to hope, or captivity to freedom. It underscores the transformative power of God's intervention in the lives of His people. The wrenching experiences, though painful, are often necessary for spiritual growth and alignment with God's will. They remind believers of the cost of discipleship and the ongoing battle against sin, while also offering hope in God's redemptive power and ultimate deliverance.(imp. & p. p.) of Wrench.
