Berean Strong's Lexicon zanach: To reject, to forsake, to cast off Original Word: זָנַח Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: zanach Pronunciation: zah-nakh' Phonetic Spelling: (zaw-nakh') Definition: To reject, to forsake, to cast off Meaning: reject, forsake, fail Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G593 (apodokimazo): To reject, to disapprove - G683 (apotheo): To push away, to reject Usage: The Hebrew verb "zanach" primarily conveys the action of rejecting or forsaking. It is often used in the context of God rejecting His people due to their disobedience or idolatry. The term can also imply a sense of casting away or discarding something deemed unworthy or unfaithful. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, the concept of rejection or forsaking was significant in covenant relationships. Israel's relationship with God was based on a covenant, and faithfulness was expected from both parties. When Israel turned to idolatry or failed to uphold the covenant, the language of "zanach" was used to describe God's response to their unfaithfulness. This reflects the seriousness of covenantal breaches and the consequences of turning away from God.
