sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: In the Torah it is used when people are terrified, such as Joseph's brothers before him, or enemies before God's power. Israel is told not to be affrighted by enemies because God is with them. Interpretation: Commentators read Joseph's brothers' terror as shame and fear of judgment before one they had wronged. They also teach that trust in God removes fear in war. In the primary lessons: in tales, a sudden fright that makes a person cry out or go pale
