Usage: The Hebrew verb "pasha" primarily means to rebel or transgress. It conveys the idea of a willful and deliberate act of defiance against authority, often used in the context of rebellion against God or His commandments. The term implies a conscious decision to break away from a covenant or established order, highlighting the gravity of the offense.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of covenant was central to the relationship between God and His people. To "pasha" was not merely a legal infraction but a breach of the sacred covenant, an act of disloyalty and betrayal. This rebellion was seen as a serious offense, often leading to divine judgment or punishment. The term is frequently used in the prophetic literature to describe Israel's unfaithfulness to God.
