Usage: The term Jeshurun appears in the Hebrew Bible as a symbolic name for Israel, emphasizing the nation's ideal character as upright and righteous before God. It is used in a few key passages to highlight Israel's special relationship with God. Context: Jeshurun is a poetic and affectionate name for the nation of Israel, found in the Hebrew Bible. It appears in four passages: Deuteronomy 32:15, Deuteronomy 33:5, Deuteronomy 33:26, and Isaiah 44:2. In Deuteronomy 32:15, Jeshurun is used in a context of rebuke, where Israel, having grown prosperous, is warned against forsaking God: "But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked; you grew fat, thick, and sleek—he abandoned the God who made him and scorned the Rock of his salvation." In Deuteronomy 33:5, it is used to describe the ideal kingship of God over Israel: "So the LORD became King in Jeshurun when the leaders of the people gathered, together with the tribes of Israel." Deuteronomy 33:26 praises God's unique relationship with Israel: "There is none like the God of Jeshurun, who rides the heavens to your aid, and the clouds in His majesty." Finally, in Isaiah 44:2, Jeshurun is used in a comforting promise of God's care: "This is the word of the LORD your Maker, who formed you from the womb and will help you: Do not be afraid, O Jacob My servant, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen."
