sense in the lessons
In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: In these texts it means listened with care or paid attention. It is often said of God hearing a prayer, or of people who ignored the call to listen. Interpretation: Tradition reads God's "attending" to prayer as a promise that He hears His people. The refusal to attend is the sin that the prophets and Proverbs warn against. In the primary lessons: the number of people who were at an event; counts that may be added or compared; phrases «attended school», «attended to», «attendance»
