Strong's Lexicon mirshaath: Wickedness, iniquity, guilt Original Word: מִרְשַׁעַת Word Origin: Derived from the root רָשַׁע (rasha), meaning "to be wicked" or "to act wickedly." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) for concepts of wickedness or iniquity is ἀδικία (adikia), Strong's Greek #93, which also conveys the idea of injustice or unrighteousness. Usage: The term "mirshaath" is used to denote a state of moral corruption or wickedness. It often refers to actions or behaviors that are contrary to God's laws and commands. In the Hebrew Bible, it is used to describe the sinful actions of individuals or groups that lead to judgment or divine disfavor. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, adherence to the covenantal laws given by God was central to maintaining a right relationship with Him. Wickedness, or "mirshaath," was seen as a breach of this covenant, leading to social and spiritual consequences. The concept of wickedness was not only a personal failing but also had communal implications, affecting the entire community's standing before God.
