# acquit

verb (acquits, acquitted, acquitting)

«acquit» in the English dictionary: in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## In Jewish tradition

Interpretation: Job fears that God, who watches every sin, will not declare him innocent; tradition sees in this the question of how a person can be just before God. In the primary lessons: in tales, a trial or test where a person must show how well they perform, such as a review of soldiers
