Berean Strong's Lexicon Tovqhath: Reproof, correction, rebuke Original Word: תּוֹכַחַת Word Origin: Derived from the root יָכַח (yakach), which means "to reprove" or "to correct." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1651 (ἐλέγχω, elegcho): To convict, to reprove, to expose - G3559 (νουθεσία, nouthesia): Admonition, instruction Usage: The term "Tovqhath" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote the act of correction or reproof. It often implies a verbal admonition intended to bring about a change in behavior or attitude. This word is typically used in contexts where moral or spiritual guidance is being offered, often by God or a wise individual, to correct wrong actions or thoughts. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, reproof was an essential aspect of maintaining communal and individual righteousness. The Hebrew culture placed a high value on wisdom and moral integrity, and reproof was seen as a necessary tool for achieving these ideals. The concept of reproof is deeply embedded in the wisdom literature of the Bible, such as Proverbs, where it is often associated with the path to wisdom and understanding.
