Definition: The term "amidating" comes from ancient Greek and refers to something that has been set aside for a time, usually for a period longer than one week. It was used in various contexts throughout history, including Jewish law, and is often associated with the Hebrew term "'amish." In this sense of being removed from normal circumstances or routines for a few days, the word "amidating" can have a spiritual meaning as well. It may mean to leave oneself free of the obligations imposed by society, such as work commitments or family obligations, and focus on personal growth and self-improvement. The Hebrew term "'amish" comes from the Greek word ἄλλος (allos), which means "not a part." The phrase "amidating" might be applied metaphorically to being in a state of not having a place or purpose in a particular way, like a person who has abandoned their religious beliefs. This could also mean leaving behind worldly possessions and activities. The Hebrew term "'amish" is often associated with the idea that those who have left home (or been taken away from their community) can find meaning by seeking to return and live as if they were part of a new community or tradition.
