Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the concept of pride and arrogance can be related to Greek words such as ὑπερηφανία (hyperēphania - G5243), meaning pride or arrogance.

Usage: The Hebrew verb "zud" primarily conveys the idea of boiling or seething, often used metaphorically to describe actions characterized by pride, arrogance, or insolence. It suggests a sense of overstepping boundaries or acting with presumptuousness. In the context of biblical narratives, it often describes individuals or groups who act defiantly against God or His commandments.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of pride and insolence was often associated with rebellion against divine authority. The Israelites were frequently warned against such attitudes, as they were seen as leading to downfall and judgment. The metaphor of boiling or seething captures the intensity and destructive potential of unchecked pride.
