It is a term that encapsulates the idea of stopping or refraining from an action, often used in discussions of moral or ethical behavior. Context: מַבְלִיגִית (mavligit) is a Hebrew term that signifies the act of desisting or ceasing from an action. It is derived from the root בָּלַג (balag), which conveys the idea of stopping or refraining. This concept is significant in biblical texts where the emphasis is placed on the importance of self-control and the cessation of sinful or harmful behaviors. The term is reflective of the broader biblical theme of repentance and turning away from wrongdoing. While מַבְלִיגִית itself may not appear frequently in the biblical text, the underlying principle of desistance is a recurring theme, encouraging individuals to cease from sin and pursue righteousness.
