Definition: In the Bible, "apprehensively" is a Hebrew term that means "to be extremely concerned or alarmed." It signifies a severe concern or anxiety about something or someone. For example, in Deuteronomy 20:19, God warns Jacob and Esau to be "apprehensively concerned" for Isaac's safety. In other contexts, it's used as an adjective that describes extreme concern or alarm, such as when Joseph was afraid of his father's reaction after he betrayed him.
