Berean Strong's Lexicon razon: Leanness, Emaciation Original Word: רָזוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the root רָזָה (razah), which means "to be lean" or "to be emaciated." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "razon," the concept of leanness or lack can be related to Greek terms such as ἀσθένεια (astheneia - weakness) or πενία (penia - poverty). Usage: The term "razon" is used to describe a state of physical leanness or emaciation, often implying a lack of nourishment or sustenance. It can be used metaphorically to describe spiritual or moral impoverishment. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, physical health and well-being were often seen as indicators of divine favor, while leanness or emaciation could be viewed as a sign of divine displeasure or judgment. The concept of "razon" would have been understood in the context of agricultural society, where food scarcity could lead to physical leanness, and spiritual leanness could be seen as a result of turning away from God.
