Protected and honored as something sacred or deeply valued; formally established or made official.
Past participle of 'enshrine,' serving as an adjective to describe something that has been placed in or treated as a shrine, often used in legal and ceremonial contexts.
When Supreme Court decisions are 'enshrined' in law or rights are 'enshrined' in the Constitution, the word carries the emotional weight of religious ritual—we're borrowing the sacred language of temples to emphasize that these are not just rules but things we hold sacred as a society.
