Strong's Lexicon hamah: To murmur, roar, growl, be boisterous, be turbulent Original Word: הָמָה Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1035 (brontē): Often used to describe thunder, reflecting a similar sense of loud, powerful noise. - G2351 (thorybos): Meaning noise or uproar, used in contexts of commotion or disturbance. Usage: The Hebrew verb "hamah" conveys a sense of noise and agitation. It is used to describe a range of sounds from the low murmur of a crowd to the loud roar of the sea or the growl of a lion. The word often implies a sense of unrest or disturbance, whether in nature or among people. It can also denote emotional turmoil or agitation within an individual. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, sound played a significant role in communication and expression. The natural world was often described in terms of its sounds, which were seen as manifestations of divine power or presence. The roaring of the sea or the growling of animals could symbolize God's might or the chaos of the world. In human contexts, murmuring or tumult could reflect social unrest or spiritual disquiet.
