Origin and meaning of rout by Online Etymology Dictionary

1590s, "disorderly retreat following a defeat," from French route "disorderly flight of troops," literally "a breaking off, rupture," from Vulgar Latin *rupta "a dispersed group," literally "a broken group," from noun use of Latin rupta, fem. past participle of rumpere "to break" (see rupture (n.)).

The archaic English noun rout "group of persons, assemblage," is the same word, from Anglo-French rute, Old French route "host, troop, crowd," from Vulgar Latin rupta "a dispersed group," here with sense of "a division, a detachment." It first came to English meaning "group of soldiers" (early 13c.), also "gang of outlaws or rioters, mob" (c. 1300) before the more general sense developed 14c. Also as a legal term. A rout-cake (1807) was one baked for use at a reception.

In the absence of effective motivation and control from their leaders, a unit that has taken heavy casualties and/or believes itself about to be surrounded, annihilated or overrun by a superior force may suddenly disintegrate into a state of self-perpetuating mass panic, with each combatant running pell-mell in a herd mentality towards a place of imagined safety (usually directly away from the enemy). A force which has retreated thus is said to have "routed", "broken", "fled the field" or declared "every man for himself" (sauve qui peut).

Psalm 94

20 Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with thee, Which frameth mischief by statute? 21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, And condemn the innocent blood. 22 But Jehovah hath been my high tower, And my God the rock of my refuge. 23 And he hath brought upon them their own iniquity, And will cut them off in their own wickedness; Jehovah our God will cut them off.

New book Volcano shows the breathtaking majesty of volcanoes via jaw-dropping photographs | Daily Mail Online

Volcano, by Robert J Ford, takes the reader on an eye-opening photographic tour to the globe's four corners 

He writes that volcanoes are a powerful reminder by our planet that we are but residents upon its back 

The book is 'a visual celebration of the most impressive, infamous and active volcanoes' on the planet

MOUNT VESUVIUS, CAMPANIA, ITALY: This volcano poses a deadly threat to millions. Ford writes: 'Mount Vesuvius, part of the Campanian Volcanic Arc, dominates the Bay of Naples and the population centres lying within its reach. It is these nearby settlements that make Vesuvius one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world, with three million people in Naples near enough to be threatened by an eruption and the mountain being the only mainland European volcano to have erupted in the past 100 years (1944 being the last incident)'

DEVILS TOWER, WYOMING, USA: It's a volcanic tower that's out of this world, having made an appearance in Steven Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Ford reveals that this 264m (867ft) geological feature is considered sacred by Northern Plains Indians and is thought to have been formed 'by an intrusion of magma into surrounding sedimentary rock' and 'would only have become a visible landmark when all the sedimentary material eroded away'. Ford adds: 'Some believe, however, that Devils Tower is all that remains of what was once a huge explosive volcano'

COTOPAXI, COTOPAXI PROVINCE, ECUADOR: 'Cotopaxi’s biggest known eruptions were in 1742, 1744, 1768 and 1877,' reveals Ford. 'The latter three events destroyed Latacunga town on each occasion. During the 1877 eruption, pyroclastic flows on all sides of the mountain melted the entire ice cap to cause lahars [mudflows] that travelled more than 100km (62 miles) to the Pacific Ocean. Modern eruptions threaten flash-melts of the new glacier and lahars that pose a great risk to the land and population nearby'

FUEGO, ANTIGUA, GUATEMALA: 'Typically, eruptions of Fuego were of a Vulcanian nature (small yet violent explosions with dense clouds of ash-laden gas and rock, with both pyroclastic and thick magma flows) and lasted a few hours to several days,' explains Ford. 'From 2002, Fuego began a period of almost constant activity that saw bursts of ash and lava, which culminated in an unexpected eruption in 2018 that buried several villages and killed nearly 200 people'

Psalm 75
1 We give thanks unto thee, O God; We give thanks, for thy name is near: Men tell of thy wondrous works.
2 When I shall find the set time, I will judge uprightly. 3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I have set up the pillars of it. Selah

Nahum 1
5 The mountains quake at him, and the hills melt; and the earth is upheaved at his presence, yea, the world, and all that dwell therein. 6 Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken asunder by him.

Exodus 19
18 And mount Sinai, the whole of it, smoked, because Jehovah descended upon it in fire; and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. 19 And when the voice of the trumpet waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.
