Strong's Lexicon enochleó: To trouble, to disturb, to annoy Original Word: ἐνοχλέω Word Origin: Derived from the Greek preposition "ἐν" (en, meaning "in" or "on") and the verb "ὀχλέω" (ochleó, meaning "to trouble" or "to disturb"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἐνοχλέω, similar concepts can be found in Hebrew words like "צָרַר" (tsarar), meaning "to bind" or "to distress," and "בָּהַל" (bahal), meaning "to terrify" or "to trouble." Usage: The verb ἐνοχλέω (enochleó) is used in the New Testament to describe the act of causing trouble or disturbance. It conveys a sense of being bothered or agitated by an external force or influence. This term is often used in contexts where individuals are experiencing some form of distress or inconvenience. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of being troubled or disturbed was not only a personal experience but also a social one. The ancient societies placed a high value on order and harmony, both in personal life and in the community. Disturbances were often seen as disruptions to the social fabric and were addressed with seriousness. The use of ἐνοχλέω in the New Testament reflects the cultural understanding of maintaining peace and avoiding unnecessary conflict.
