It can be used metaphorically to describe emotions or thoughts that are welling up or stirring within a person. Context: The Hebrew verb רָחַשׁ (rachash) appears in the Old Testament with the primary sense of movement or stirring, often associated with liquids or emotions. In its literal sense, it can describe the physical action of gushing or bubbling, as seen in natural phenomena like springs or boiling water. Metaphorically, it is used to convey the idea of emotions or thoughts that are intensely stirring within a person, akin to a bubbling or boiling over. This term is notably used in Psalm 45:1, where the psalmist describes his heart as "stirred" or "overflowing" with a noble theme, indicating a deep, internal movement of emotion or inspiration. The imagery of gushing or stirring is powerful in conveying the intensity and spontaneity of the action or emotion being described.
