Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Onomatopoeic word, likely of imitative origin, reflecting the sound of murmuring or grumbling. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • H3885 לוּן (lun): To lodge, to murmur, to complain. This Hebrew term is often used in the Old Testament to describe the Israelites' complaints against God during their wilderness journey. • H8519 תְּלוּנָה (telunah): Complaint, murmuring. This noun form is used to describe the act of complaining or expressing dissatisfaction, particularly in the context of the Israelites' rebellion. These Hebrew terms provide a background to the concept of grumbling as seen in the Greek New Testament, illustrating a consistent theme of human discontent and the call to trust in divine providence throughout the biblical narrative. Usage: The verb γογγύζω is used in the New Testament to describe the act of murmuring or grumbling, typically in a context of discontent or complaint against authority or circumstances. It is often used to depict a negative attitude or lack of faith. Context: The Greek verb γογγύζω appears in several New Testament passages, illustrating the human tendency to express dissatisfaction and lack of trust in God's provision and leadership. This term is notably used in contexts where individuals or groups express discontent, often in a manner that reflects a deeper spiritual issue of unbelief or rebellion. In the Gospel of John, γογγύζω is used to describe the reaction of the Jews to Jesus' teachings. For example, in John 6:41, the Jews "began to grumble about Him because He said, 'I am the bread that came down from heaven.'" This grumbling reflects their struggle to accept Jesus' divine origin and mission. The Apostle Paul, in 1 Corinthians 10:10, warns the Corinthian church against grumbling, drawing a parallel to the Israelites in the wilderness who grumbled against God and faced consequences: "And do not grumble, as some of them did, and were killed by the destroying angel." This serves as a cautionary reminder of the spiritual dangers associated with a complaining spirit. The use of γογγύζω in the New Testament underscores the importance of maintaining faith and trust in God's plan, even when circumstances are challenging. It highlights the destructive nature of grumbling, which can lead to division and a weakening of community and faith.
