Shame
Shame in Scripture is the experience of exposure and unworthiness that drives hiding — from Adam and Eve in the garden to Peter after the denial. The Bible names shame honestly and offers covering that goes beyond fig leaves: the robe of righteousness, the restoration of Peter by the charcoal fire, the word to the woman caught ("neither do I condemn thee"). Shame is answered not by minimising the wrong but by the God who draws near.
