Usage: The verb נָשָׁה (nashah) is used in the Hebrew Bible to convey the act of forgetting or neglecting something. It can also imply the removal or remission of something, often in a figurative sense. Context: • The Hebrew verb נָשָׁה (nashah) appears in various contexts within the Old Testament, often carrying the connotation of forgetting or neglecting. This can be seen in both personal and communal settings, where individuals or groups may forget obligations, covenants, or even divine commands. • In Genesis 41:51, Joseph names his firstborn son Manasseh, saying, "God has made me forget all my hardship and all my father’s house." Here, נָשָׁה is used to express the idea of forgetting past troubles and familial ties. • The concept of forgetting is not merely passive but can also imply a deliberate act of neglect or disregard. This is evident in passages where the Israelites are warned against forgetting the LORD and His commandments, as seen in Deuteronomy 4:23, "Be careful not to forget the covenant of the LORD your God that He made with you." • The term can also be used in a legal or financial context, where it may refer to the remission or removal of debts or obligations. This is seen in the context of the sabbatical year, where debts are to be forgiven, as described in Deuteronomy 15:2, "This is how it is to be done: Every creditor shall cancel what he has lent to his neighbor." • נָשָׁה (nashah) thus encompasses a range of meanings from the personal and emotional to the legal and communal, reflecting the multifaceted nature of memory, obligation, and forgiveness in the biblical narrative.
