Strong's Lexicon naaphuph: Adultery, unfaithfulness Original Word: נַאֲפוּף Word Origin: Derived from the root נָאַף (na'aph), which means "to commit adultery" or "to be unfaithful." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is μοιχεία (moicheia), which also means adultery. Key Greek entries include Strong's G3430 (μοιχός, moichos) and G3431 (μοιχεύω, moicheuō). Usage: The term "naaphuph" refers to the act of adultery or unfaithfulness, particularly in the context of marital infidelity. It is used to describe both physical acts of adultery and metaphorical unfaithfulness to God, often depicted as spiritual adultery in the prophetic literature. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, adultery was considered a grave sin and a violation of the covenant relationship between husband and wife. It was also seen as a breach of the covenant between God and His people, as Israel was often portrayed as the bride of Yahweh. The act of adultery was punishable by severe penalties under the Mosaic Law, reflecting its seriousness in maintaining social and religious order.
