Usage: The Hebrew word "deber" primarily refers to a pestilence or plague, often seen as a divine judgment or a form of punishment from God. It is used in the context of widespread disease or calamity that affects large populations, typically as a consequence of disobedience or sin. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, pestilence was often viewed as a direct act of God, a tool used to bring about repentance or to execute judgment. The concept of divine retribution through plagues is a recurring theme in the Old Testament, reflecting the belief in a God who is actively involved in the moral order of the world. Pestilence was feared not only for its immediate physical effects but also for its spiritual implications, as it was often associated with the covenantal relationship between God and His people.
