Strong's Lexicon sheagah: Roar Original Word: שְׁאָגָה Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁאַג (sha'ag), which means "to roar" or "to bellow." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "sheagah," the concept of roaring can be found in the New Testament with words like βρυχάομαι (bruchaomai), which means "to roar" or "to bellow," as seen in 1 Peter 5:8, describing the devil as a roaring lion. Usage: The term "sheagah" refers to a loud, deep sound, typically associated with the roar of a lion. It conveys a sense of power, authority, and sometimes impending danger. In the biblical context, it is often used metaphorically to describe the voice of God or the sound of His judgment. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the lion was a symbol of strength and majesty. The roar of a lion was both feared and respected, representing dominance and control over its territory. In the Hebrew Bible, the imagery of a lion's roar is used to communicate the overwhelming power and authority of God, as well as the fearsome nature of His judgments.
