Strong's Lexicon odunaó: To cause pain, to be in anguish, to grieve Original Word: ὀδυνάω Word Origin: Derived from the Greek noun ὀδύνη (odynē), meaning "pain" or "grief." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with similar concepts of pain and anguish includes חָלָה (chalah - Strong's H2470) and יָגוֹן (yagon - Strong's H3015), which convey sickness, grief, and sorrow. Usage: The verb ὀδυνάω primarily conveys the experience of physical or emotional pain and distress. It is used in the New Testament to describe both physical suffering and deep emotional anguish. The term captures the intensity of suffering, whether it be bodily pain or the sorrow of the soul. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of pain and suffering was often associated with the human condition and the trials of life. The Greeks and Romans had various philosophical and medical approaches to understanding and alleviating pain. In the Jewish context, suffering was often seen in light of divine providence and the consequences of sin, yet also as an opportunity for spiritual growth and reliance on God.
