Strong's Lexicon atsab: To grieve, to hurt, to pain, to vex Original Word: עֲצַב Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3076 (λυπέω, lupeo) - to grieve, to cause sorrow - G3996 (πενθέω, pentheo) - to mourn, to lament Usage: The Hebrew verb "atsab" primarily conveys the idea of causing pain or grief, either physically or emotionally. It is used in the context of both human and divine experiences of sorrow or distress. The term can also imply the act of vexing or troubling someone, indicating a broader range of emotional disturbance. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, expressions of grief and sorrow were often communal and deeply felt, reflecting the close-knit nature of family and community life. The concept of grief was not only personal but also collective, affecting the entire community. The use of "atsab" in the Hebrew Bible often reflects the relational dynamics between God and His people, where disobedience or sin leads to divine sorrow or anger.
