Strong's Lexicon plégé: Plague, blow, wound, stripe Original Word: πληγή Word Origin: Derived from the verb πλήσσω (plesso), meaning "to strike" or "to smite." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H4347 (מַכָּה, makkah): Often translated as "wound" or "plague," used in contexts of physical affliction or divine judgment. - H5061 (נֶגַע, nega): Refers to a plague, stroke, or mark, frequently used in Levitical laws concerning leprosy and other afflictions. Usage: In the New Testament, "plégé" primarily refers to a blow or wound, often used metaphorically to describe divine judgments or calamities, such as plagues or afflictions. It conveys the idea of a severe impact or strike, whether physical or spiritual. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient world, plagues and physical afflictions were often seen as acts of divine judgment or punishment. The concept of a "plague" was not limited to disease but included any calamity or disaster perceived as a direct intervention by a deity. In the Greco-Roman context, such events were interpreted as signs of divine displeasure, requiring appeasement or repentance.
