Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2288 (θάνατος, thanatos): Often translated as "death," this Greek term can also refer to pestilence or plague in certain contexts, particularly in the Septuagint where it translates "deber." • G2289 (θανατόω, thanatoō): This verb means "to put to death" or "to kill," and while not directly equivalent to "deber," it conveys the result of a pestilence or plague, which is death. These Greek terms reflect the thematic continuity between the Hebrew and Greek scriptures regarding divine judgment and the consequences of sin. Usage: The term "deber" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a pestilence or plague, often as a divine judgment or calamity sent by God. It is frequently associated with widespread disease or disaster that results in significant loss of life. Context: The Hebrew word "deber" appears numerous times in the Old Testament, often in contexts where God is executing judgment upon nations or peoples. It is commonly listed among the various forms of divine retribution, such as the sword, famine, and wild beasts. For instance, in the book of Exodus, pestilence is one of the plagues that God sends upon Egypt (Exodus 9:3). In Leviticus 26:25, God warns Israel that if they disobey His commandments, He will send a pestilence among them. Similarly, in 2 Samuel 24:15, a pestilence sent by God results in the death of 70,000 men as a consequence of David's census. The prophets frequently mention "deber" as a tool of divine punishment, emphasizing the seriousness of turning away from God's commandments (Jeremiah 21:6-7, Ezekiel 14:19-21). In the Psalms, pestilence is depicted as something from which God can protect the faithful (Psalm 91:3, 6). The use of "deber" underscores the belief in God's sovereignty over life and death, and His ability to use natural phenomena to fulfill His purposes.
