Trap: if they moved within the same group, the total does not change. «Moved» is regular: move + d. ## In Jewish tradition In Genesis it means pitched or shifted camp, and in the flood story it means living creatures that went about on the earth. In the psalms, "never be moved" means to stay steady and safe, and "moved" can also mean urged or stirred to do something. **Interpretation.** Abram's moving his tent shows a wandering life of tents, with an altar built wherever he settled. The psalms see the righteous person as firm and unshaken. Chronicles says Satan "moved" David to count Israel, which tradition reads as an urging that led him to sin. ### Examples - Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the Plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
