Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root שׁוּב (shuv), meaning "to turn back" or "to return."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G654: ἀποστασία (apostasia) • This Greek term is used in the New Testament to describe a falling away or defection from the faith, similar to the concept of apostasy in the Hebrew Scriptures. Usage: The word שׁוֹבֵב is used in the context of describing individuals or groups who have turned away from the covenantal relationship with God, often engaging in idolatry or practices contrary to the teachings of the Hebrew Scriptures. Context: The term שׁוֹבֵב appears in the Hebrew Bible to characterize those who have strayed from the path of righteousness and have embraced practices or beliefs that are contrary to the worship of Yahweh. This term is often associated with the Israelites' recurring cycle of apostasy, where they would turn away from God, face consequences, and eventually return to Him. The concept of apostasy is a significant theme in the prophetic literature, where prophets call the people to repentance and warn of the dangers of turning away from God. The use of שׁוֹבֵב underscores the seriousness of abandoning one's faith and the moral and spiritual decline that accompanies such a departure. In the Berean Standard Bible, the emphasis is on the need for faithfulness and the consequences of spiritual rebellion.
