Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G645: ἀποσπάω (apospaō) • to draw away, to tear away • G868: ἀφίημι (aphiēmi) • to send away, to leave, to forgive • G1288: διασπάω (diaspaō) • to tear asunder, to break apart • G1828: ἐξαρπάζω (exarpazō) • to seize, to snatch away • G3855: παρασπάω (paraspaō) • to draw aside, to mislead • G4486: ῥήγνυμι (rhēgnumi) • to break, to burst • G4685: σπάω (spaō) • to draw, to pull These Greek terms reflect similar themes of separation, breaking, and pulling away, illustrating the continuity of these concepts across the biblical languages. Usage: The verb נָתַק (nataq) is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe the action of tearing or pulling something apart. It can refer to physical separation or metaphorical disconnection. Context: The Hebrew verb נָתַק (nataq) appears in various contexts within the Old Testament, often conveying the idea of separation or disconnection. It is used both in literal and figurative senses. For instance, in 1 Kings 11:11, God declares that He will "tear" the kingdom away from Solomon due to his disobedience: "So the LORD said to Solomon, 'Since you have done this and have not kept My covenant and statutes, which I commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom away from you and give it to your servant.'" (BSB). This usage highlights the divine judgment and the physical and political separation that results from it. In another instance, Psalm 107:14 uses נָתַק to describe liberation from bondage: "He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death and broke away their chains." (BSB). Here, the term is used metaphorically to describe the freeing of individuals from spiritual or emotional captivity. The verb is also found in contexts of personal or relational separation, as seen in Job 17:11, where Job laments the tearing away of his plans and hopes: "My days are past; my plans are torn apart, even the wishes of my heart." (BSB). נָתַק (nataq) thus serves as a powerful term in the Hebrew Bible, illustrating both the physical act of tearing and the broader implications of separation, whether by divine intervention, personal loss, or liberation.
