Strong's Lexicon chatta: Sinner Original Word: חַטָּא Word Origin: Derived from the root חָטָא (chata), meaning "to miss" or "to sin." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G268 (ἁμαρτωλός, hamartōlos): Often translated as "sinner" in the New Testament, reflecting a similar concept of one who is morally and spiritually deviant from God's will. Usage: The term "chatta" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a person who commits sin or is characterized by sinful behavior. It emphasizes the moral and ethical deviation from God's commandments and standards. The word often carries a connotation of habitual sinfulness or a lifestyle marked by sin. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, sin was understood as a breach of the covenant relationship with God. The concept of sin was not merely a legal infraction but a relational rupture that required atonement and repentance. The sacrificial system, as outlined in the Torah, provided a means for atonement, highlighting the seriousness with which sin was regarded. The community was called to holiness, reflecting God's own holiness, and those labeled as "chatta" were often seen as needing to return to the covenant path.
