Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with this concept is "קָצַף" (qatsaph), which means to be angry or to be wrathful. This term is used in the Old Testament to describe God's anger towards Israel's disobedience (e.g., Deuteronomy 9:7-8).

Usage: The verb "prosochthizó" conveys a sense of strong displeasure or vexation. It is used to describe a deep-seated indignation or grievance, often in response to persistent disobedience or rebellion. In the context of the Bible, it reflects God's righteous anger or displeasure towards the unfaithfulness and stubbornness of His people.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, expressions of indignation or displeasure were common in both personal and public spheres. The term "prosochthizó" would have been understood as a strong emotional response, often justified by a breach of trust or moral failure. In the biblical context, it is used to describe God's response to the Israelites' repeated disobedience during their wilderness journey, highlighting the seriousness of their rebellion against His covenant.
