Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2189 (ἔχθρα • echthra): This Greek term is often used in the New Testament to denote "enmity" or "hostility." It shares a similar semantic range with the Hebrew שִׂנְאָה, emphasizing the concept of opposition or hatred. For instance, in Galatians 5:20, it is listed among the works of the flesh: "idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions." In summary, שִׂנְאָה (sin'ah) is a significant term in the Hebrew Bible that encapsulates the concept of hatred, with profound implications for personal relationships and spiritual life. The biblical narrative consistently advocates for overcoming hatred through love and reconciliation, aligning with the broader theological themes of peace and unity. Usage: The word שִׂנְאָה appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often describing interpersonal animosity, divine disfavor, or national enmity. It is used to express deep-seated dislike or opposition. Context: • Occurrences in the Hebrew Bible: The term שִׂנְאָה is used in several passages to describe different forms of hatred. For example, in Genesis 26:27, it is used in the context of personal animosity: "Isaac asked them, 'Why have you come to me, since you hate me and have sent me away from you?'" In Proverbs 10:12, it contrasts with love: "Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers all transgressions." • Theological Implications: Hatred, as depicted in the Hebrew Bible, is often seen as a destructive force that leads to conflict and division. It is frequently contrasted with love, which is portrayed as a unifying and redemptive force. The Bible warns against harboring hatred, as it can lead to sin and estrangement from God. • Cultural and Historical Context: In ancient Israelite society, hatred could manifest in various forms, including familial discord, tribal conflicts, and international hostilities. The biblical narrative often highlights the consequences of hatred and the importance of reconciliation and forgiveness. • Moral and Ethical Considerations: The biblical text encourages believers to overcome hatred through love and forgiveness. This is exemplified in teachings that promote peace and reconciliation, urging individuals to seek harmony and understanding rather than enmity.
