My "word" for last week was eschew, which is an old English, King James word that means turn away.
God described Job as a man who eschewed evil. Ten days of repentance lead up to Yom Kippur. It's a time to turn away from things that God is dealing with you on. Evil ways are always there to infect us and we have to choose to turn.
