Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent that captures a similar concept is ταπεινός (tapeinos), Strong's Greek #5011, which means humble or lowly. Usage: The term "doki" is used to describe a state of being low or in a condition of depression or abasement. It conveys a sense of humility or being brought low, often in a physical, emotional, or spiritual sense. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it can refer to both literal and metaphorical states of being. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of being "low" or "depressed" was often associated with humility or a state of being that required divine intervention or support. The Israelites understood that being brought low could be a result of personal sin, divine judgment, or a test of faith. However, it was also seen as an opportunity for repentance and seeking God's mercy.
