Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive rootCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G349: ἀνακράζω (anakrazo) • to cry out, shout Usage: The verb שָׁאַג (sha'ag) is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a loud, often deep sound, akin to roaring or moaning. It is frequently used to depict the roaring of a lion or the tumultuous sound of the sea, as well as the moaning of individuals in distress. Context: • The verb שָׁאַג (sha'ag) appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often conveying a sense of power, intensity, or deep emotion. It is used to describe the roaring of a lion, which is a common biblical metaphor for strength and ferocity. For example, in Amos 3:8, the prophet declares, "The lion has roared—who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken—who will not prophesy?" (BSB). This usage underscores the awe and fear inspired by both the lion's roar and God's voice.
