Original Word: כִּלָּיוֹן
Part of Speech: Noun Masculine
Transliteration: killayon
Pronunciation: kil-lah-YONE
Phonetic Spelling: (kil-law-yone')
Definition: Consumption, destruction, annihilation

Word Origin: Derived from the root כָּלָה (kalah), meaning "to be complete, at an end, finished, or accomplished."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts of destruction or consumption is ἀπώλεια (apoleia), Strong's Greek #684, which also conveys the idea of ruin or loss.

Usage: The term "killayon" is used to denote a state of being consumed or destroyed. It often conveys a sense of totality in the process of destruction, emphasizing the complete and utter end of something. In the biblical context, it can refer to physical destruction or a metaphorical end, such as the cessation of life or the downfall of a nation.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of destruction or consumption was often tied to divine judgment or natural consequences of sin. The Israelites understood that their covenant relationship with God included blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience, which could manifest as "killayon" or destruction. This understanding was deeply embedded in their worldview and religious practices.
