Strong's Lexicon taab: To abhor, to detest, to loathe Original Word: תַּעָב Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: ta`ab Pronunciation: tah-AV Phonetic Spelling: (taw-ab') Definition: To abhor, to detest, to loathe Meaning: to loathe, detest Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G948 (bdelugma): An abomination, something detestable. - G3404 (miseo): To hate, to detest. Usage: The Hebrew verb "taab" conveys a strong sense of disgust or repulsion. It is often used in the context of moral or ritual impurity, where something is considered detestable or abominable. This term is frequently employed in the Old Testament to describe God's attitude towards idolatry, sinful practices, and unclean things. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of purity and holiness was central to religious life. The Israelites were called to be a holy people, set apart for God. Anything that was considered "taab" was seen as incompatible with the holiness of God and the community. This included idolatry, certain dietary practices, and moral transgressions. The abhorrence of such things was not merely a personal preference but a divine mandate, reflecting God's nature and His covenant with Israel.
