Retired from office/ to resign (from office)

He finished his term or office; had previously held a position. "Retired" (in the original, dimus means free or exempt).

("In the first hour he arose in thought; in the second he consulted with the ministering angels; in the third he gathered his dust; in the fourth they kneaded him; in the fifth they spun him; in the sixth they made him a golem; in the seventh they breathed a soul into him; in the eighth they brought him into the Garden; in the ninth he was commanded; in the tenth he passed; in the eleventh he was judged; in the twelfth he went out in dimus. The Holy One, blessed be He, said to Adam: This is a sign for your descendants: just as you stood before Me in judgment on this day and went out in dimus, so your descendants are destined to stand before the Judge on this day and go out in dimus. When is that? In the seventh month, on the first of the month" - Vayikra Rabbah (Vilna), Parashat Emor, section 29)
