Strong's Lexicon tagmul: Recompense, Reward, Benefit Original Word: תַּגְמוּל Word Origin: Derived from the root גָּמַל (gamal), which means "to deal fully or adequately with," "to recompense," or "to reward." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of recompense in the New Testament is often captured by the Greek word "μισθός" (misthos - Strong's G3408), which means "wages," "reward," or "recompense." Usage: The Hebrew word "tagmul" refers to the concept of recompense or reward, often in the context of receiving what is due, whether good or bad. It is used to describe the act of giving back in proportion to what has been done, reflecting a sense of justice and fairness. In the biblical context, it can refer to divine recompense, where God rewards or punishes individuals or nations according to their actions. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of recompense was deeply rooted in the covenantal relationship between God and His people. The idea of receiving a reward or punishment based on one's actions was integral to the understanding of justice and righteousness. This principle is evident in the blessings and curses outlined in the Mosaic Law, where obedience to God's commandments would result in blessings, while disobedience would lead to curses.
