Word Origin: Derived from the root בָּגַד (bagad), which means to act treacherously or deceitfully.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for treachery or deceit is δόλος (dolos), which also conveys the idea of cunning or deceitfulness.

Usage: The Hebrew word "bagod" is used to describe acts of treachery or deceit. It often conveys a sense of betrayal, particularly in relationships where trust is expected, such as between friends, family members, or within a covenant community. The term can also imply a breach of faith or trust, highlighting the moral and ethical dimensions of such actions.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, as in many ancient cultures, trust and loyalty were foundational to social and familial relationships. Betrayal was considered a grave offense, not only against individuals but also against the community and God. The concept of covenant, central to Israel's relationship with God, underscored the importance of faithfulness and integrity. Acts of treachery were seen as violations of this covenantal relationship, with significant social and spiritual repercussions.
