To abstain from food (and sometimes drink) as a spiritual discipline — expressing urgency, mourning, or devotion
Fasting accompanied prayer, repentance, mourning, and seeking God's direction. Jesus fasted 40 days in the wilderness (Matthew 4:2) and taught that fasting should be done privately, not for show (Matthew 6:16-18).
