Astonishment [1]

as -ton´ish -ment : Amazement; mental surprise, excitement, wonder; often the cause of the startled emotion, as in Deuteronomy 28:37 : "Thou shall become an astonishment." The chosen people, visited with calamities for idolatry would become a source of amazement to all nations ( Jeremiah 25:9 , Jeremiah 25:11 , Jeremiah 25:18 ); Solomon's' lofty and beautiful temple would be "an astonishment" ( 2 Chronicles 7:21 the King James Version). For original terms and fuller study see Astonished .
