Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • H7034 (קָלַל, qalal): To be slight, swift, or trifling; to curse or despise. • H2617 (חֶסֶד, chesed): Often translated as "lovingkindness" or "mercy," but in some contexts, it can imply the opposite when not shown, leading to dishonor. • H5034 (נָבַל, nabal): To be foolish or senseless, often resulting in dishonorable actions. These Hebrew terms provide a broader understanding of the concept of dishonor as it appears in the Old Testament, offering a foundation for the New Testament usage of ἀτιμάζω. Usage: The verb ἀτιμάζω is used in the New Testament to describe actions or attitudes that result in dishonor or disrespect towards individuals or God. It conveys a sense of treating someone or something as unworthy or of little value. Context: The Greek verb ἀτιμάζω appears in several New Testament passages, illustrating the concept of dishonor in various contexts. It is often used to describe the treatment of individuals who are not given the respect or honor they deserve. This term is significant in understanding the social and relational dynamics within the biblical narrative, where honor and shame played crucial roles. In the New Testament, ἀτιμάζω is used to describe the dishonor shown to Jesus Christ, reflecting the rejection and contempt He faced during His earthly ministry. For example, in John 8:49, Jesus responds to accusations by stating, "I do not have a demon, but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me." Here, ἀτιμάζω underscores the contrast between Jesus' honoring of the Father and the dishonor He receives from others. The term also appears in the context of familial relationships, as seen in Matthew 15:4-6, where Jesus criticizes the Pharisees for allowing traditions that lead to dishonoring one's parents, thus violating the commandment to honor father and mother. Furthermore, ἀτιμάζω is used in Romans 1:24 to describe how God gave people over to impurity due to their dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, highlighting the moral and spiritual implications of dishonor. The concept of dishonor is pivotal in understanding the ethical teachings of the New Testament, where believers are called to live in a manner that honors God and others, contrasting with the dishonorable behaviors of the world.
