Strong's Lexicon baat: To terrify, to startle, to dismay Original Word: בָּעַט Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of fear and terror can be related to Greek words such as "φόβος" (phobos - Strong's G5401), which also conveys fear or terror. Usage: The Hebrew verb "baat" primarily conveys the idea of being suddenly alarmed or terrified. It is used to describe a reaction of fear or dismay, often in response to an unexpected event or divine intervention. The term can imply a sudden and intense emotional response, highlighting the overwhelming nature of the experience. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, fear and terror were common responses to divine manifestations or judgments. The Israelites, like their neighbors, understood that encounters with the divine or supernatural could be awe-inspiring and fear-inducing. The concept of fear in the Hebrew Bible often encompasses both reverence and terror, reflecting the power and holiness of God.
