I would expect someone to with the name reverend to understand the meaning of the word, fear, in the original language and context it was written in…
To conduct yourself in the Fear of Adonai is not to tremble and shake and walk on eggshells.
It is to remember Him, consider Him in everything you do. To remember He is always with us, in our presence. To conduct ourselves as though we are in the presence of a king, or a great leader.
To act in reverence because we are always in the presence of a great King, because of His Holy Spirit.
We should also fear God because He is Holy, and we are not. He is strong and just to destroy us where we stand, but He is merciful.
