## In Jewish tradition

It means strong and full of energy. In Jeremiah it describes men who are driven by desire like stallions.

**Interpretation.** Jeremiah uses the picture to condemn adultery. In Judges it means strong warriors.

### Examples

- They are become as well-fed horses, lusty stallions; every one neigheth after his neighbour's wife. (Prophets JER.5.8, JPS 1917) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/L/lusty/#x1)
