Word Origin: Derived from the root רָעַל (ra'al), which means to reel or stagger. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2372 (θυμός, thymos): Refers to passion, anger, or wrath, often used in the context of divine wrath. • G2659 (καταπονέω, kataponeo): Means to wear down or oppress, sometimes used to describe the effects of divine judgment. • G4431 (πτωχεύω, ptochuo): To be poor or destitute, metaphorically used to describe spiritual impoverishment or disorientation. The term "tar'elah" serves as a powerful metaphor in the Hebrew Bible, illustrating the profound impact of divine judgment and the resulting state of confusion and disarray that befalls those who stray from the path of righteousness. Usage: The word "tar'elah" is used in the context of describing a state of confusion or disorientation, often as a result of divine judgment or wrath. It is typically associated with the imagery of drunkenness or staggering. Context: • The Hebrew term תַּרְעֵלָה (tar'elah) appears in the context of prophetic literature, where it is used to depict the effects of God's judgment upon nations or individuals. This term is often employed to convey the idea of a divinely induced stupor or confusion, akin to the effects of intoxication. In the prophetic books, such as Isaiah, the imagery of reeling is used to illustrate the moral and spiritual disarray that results from turning away from God. The use of "tar'elah" underscores the severity of divine retribution, where those who are subject to it are rendered incapable of maintaining their composure or direction, much like a drunkard who cannot walk straight. This metaphor serves to highlight the consequences of sin and the inevitable downfall that follows rebellion against divine authority.
