Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root חָתַת (ḥātat), which means to be shattered, dismayed, or broken. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G770 (ἀσθενέω, astheneō): While not a direct equivalent, this Greek term conveys a sense of weakness or being feeble, which can be related to the state of being crushed or dismayed. • G5401 (φόβος, phobos): This Greek word directly corresponds to the concept of fear or terror, similar to "ḥat." It is used in the New Testament to describe both reverential awe and the fear of impending danger or judgment. In summary, Strong's Hebrew Number 2844, "ḥat," encapsulates the profound emotional and existential response to fear and destruction, often in the context of divine interaction or judgment. It serves as a poignant reminder of human vulnerability and the awe-inspiring power of the divine. Usage: The word "ḥat" is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe situations where individuals or groups experience intense fear or are metaphorically crushed by circumstances. It is often associated with the reaction to divine judgment or the presence of formidable enemies. Context: • The term "ḥat" appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often highlighting the human response to divine or existential threats. It is used to describe the terror that grips individuals when confronted with the power and majesty of God or the impending doom brought by adversaries. • In the Berean Standard Bible, "ḥat" is translated in contexts that emphasize the overwhelming nature of fear or destruction. For example, in Isaiah 2:19, it is used to depict the terror that will drive people to hide in caves during the day of the LORD's judgment: "Men will flee to caves in the rocks and holes in the ground, away from the terror of the LORD and the splendor of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth." • The word also appears in poetic and prophetic literature, where it serves to underscore the fragility of human strength and the futility of resisting divine will. It is a reminder of the ultimate sovereignty of God and the appropriate human response of reverence and awe.
