Strong's Lexicon anaph: To be angry, to be enraged Original Word: אָנַף Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3709 (ὀργή, orgē) - often translated as "wrath" or "anger," used in the New Testament to describe both human and divine anger. - G2372 (θυμός, thymos) - another Greek term for "wrath" or "fury," emphasizing a passionate or intense form of anger. 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 more frequently associated with divine wrath in the biblical text. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, anger was often seen as a powerful and consuming emotion, both in humans and deities. The Hebrew Bible frequently portrays God as a righteous judge whose anger is provoked by idolatry, injustice, and covenant unfaithfulness. This divine anger is not capricious but is a response to moral and spiritual failures, emphasizing God's holiness and justice.
