Word of the Day - 6/5/2008

Flexuous

Flexuous means full of bends or curves; sinuous.

In her victory song, one of the ways Deborah describes the turmoil of the preceding era was that travelers took to flexuous paths. (Judges 5:6)

In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath,
In the days of Jael, the highways were deserted,
And travelers went by roundabout ways. (Judges 5:6, NASB)

Note: This painting of Deborah was done by Gustave Doré in 1865.
