Usage: The verb שָׁקַט is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a state of rest or tranquility, often in the context of peace from enemies or a cessation of activity. It conveys a sense of calmness and stillness, both physically and metaphorically. Context: The Hebrew verb שָׁקַט (shaqat) appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, primarily to denote a state of rest or peace. It is often used to describe the land or people being at rest from warfare or turmoil. For example, in Joshua 11:23, it is used to describe the land having rest from war: "So Joshua took the entire land, according to all that the LORD had spoken to Moses, and Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land had rest from war." (BSB) The term is also used in a more personal sense, indicating an individual's state of tranquility or peace. In 2 Chronicles 14:6, it describes the peace and security during King Asa's reign: "He built up the fortified cities of Judah, since the land was at peace. No one was at war with him during those years, because the LORD had given him rest." (BSB) שָׁקַט is closely related to the concept of divine peace and rest, often seen as a blessing from God. It reflects the cessation of external conflicts and internal strife, allowing for a period of stability and prosperity.
