Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3709 (ὀργή, orgē) - often translated as "wrath" or "anger" in the New Testament.

- G2372 (θυμός, thymos) - another Greek term for "anger" or "wrath," emphasizing a passionate outburst.

Usage: The Hebrew verb "anaph" primarily conveys the idea of being angry or enraged. It is often used to describe the intense anger or wrath of God in response to human sin and disobedience. The term can also be applied to human anger, though it is most frequently associated with divine indignation in the Hebrew Scriptures.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, anger was often seen as a powerful and consuming emotion, both for humans and deities. The Hebrew Bible frequently portrays God as a righteous judge whose anger is kindled by injustice, idolatry, and covenant unfaithfulness. This divine anger is not capricious but is a response to moral and spiritual failures, emphasizing God's holiness and justice.
