Word of the Day - 2/13/2009

Mesguha

Meshuga means crazy; insane. The Yiddish slang is derived from a similarHebrew term.

An evil spirit incited King Saul to behave in a meshuga manner and eventually turned him against his servant David.

Now it came about on the next day that an evil spirit from God came mightily upon Saul, and he raved in the midst of the house, while David was playing the harp with his hand, as usual; and a spear was in Saul's hand. (I Samuel 18:10, NASB)
