# conciseness

noun

«conciseness» 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: Sefer Yetzirah is a very short book. Its brief sayings are why readers have found it so deep and so hard to explain.

### Meaning

Saying much in few words. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/C/conciseness/#m1)

### Examples

- "Its form is simple and grave; there is nothing like a demonstration nor an argument; but it consists rather of a series of aphorisms, regularly grouped, and which have all the conciseness of the most ancient oracles."
