Strong's Lexicon anash: To be weak, sick, frail, incurable Original Word: עֲנַשׁ Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the concept of incurability or severe moral/spiritual sickness can be related to Greek terms like ἀσθενής (asthenēs - G772), meaning weak or sick, and ἀθεράπευτος (atherapeutos - G232), meaning incurable. Usage: The Hebrew verb "anash" primarily conveys the idea of being weak or sick, often in a physical sense. It can also imply a state of being incurable or beyond recovery. This term is used to describe both physical ailments and metaphorically to describe moral or spiritual conditions that are seen as beyond remedy. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, physical health was often seen as closely linked to spiritual and moral well-being. Illness could be perceived as a sign of divine displeasure or a consequence of sin. The concept of being "incurable" or "beyond recovery" would have been particularly dire, as it suggested a condition that could not be remedied by human means, often requiring divine intervention.
