### sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: It means a besieged or fortified city, as in the Psalm. God shows kindness even when a person is shut in with enemies all around. Interpretation: Commentators suggest the psalmist felt as if hemmed in, and found God's care in the tight place. The verse is read as thanks for rescue in danger.
