ABJURED Meaning and
Definition
-
To abjure is to willingly renounce or give up something, typically a belief, claim, or allegiance. It is an active and conscious act of rejecting or formally renouncing a previously held position or belief. When someone abjures, they are consciously and voluntarily rejecting or forsaking a particular ideology, opinion, or association. The act of abjuring is often characterized by a public declaration or oath, which serves as a formal announcement of the renouncement and disavowal of the previous belief or allegiance.
Abjuring can have both personal and political significance. On a personal level, it may refer to an individual's decision to renounce a previously held belief or conviction, often due to a change in perspective or a realization that the belief is flawed or no longer relevant. In a political context, abjuring can involve renouncing one's allegiance to a particular political party, leader, or ideology.
The term "abjure" should not be confused with "adjure," which means to earnestly request or urge someone to do something. Abjuring implies a more definitive and conscious act of renunciation, while adjuring focuses on a request or urging someone to take action.

Etymology of ABJURED
The word "abjured" is derived from the Latin term "abiurare", which came from the prefix "ab-" meaning "away" and the verb "iurare" meaning "to swear". In ancient Roman times, "abiurare" referred to renouncing or recanting an oath or a religious belief. Over time, the term evolved in Old French as "abjurer", which retained its meaning of renouncing an oath or allegiance. Eventually, it entered Middle English as "abjuren", and through linguistic changes, it transformed into "abjured" in modern English.
