These Greek terms reflect various aspects of the concept of "אֵיד," including destruction, suffering, and the moral implications of evil and misfortune.

Usage: The word "אֵיד" is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe situations of distress, calamity, or ruin, often as a result of divine judgment or as a consequence of sin. It is typically associated with the downfall or destruction of individuals, cities, or nations.

Context: • The term "אֵיד" appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often highlighting the severe consequences of turning away from God's commandments. It is used to describe the ruin that comes upon those who oppose God's will or who engage in wickedness.
• In the prophetic literature, "אֵיד" is frequently employed to depict the impending judgment upon nations or peoples who have acted unjustly or idolatrously. For example, in Obadiah 1:13, the prophet warns against gloating over a brother's day of misfortune, using "אֵיד" to emphasize the severity of the calamity.
• The term also appears in poetic and wisdom literature, where it serves as a reminder of the transient nature of human endeavors and the ultimate sovereignty of God over the affairs of humanity. In Proverbs 1:26-27, the concept of "אֵיד" is used to illustrate the sudden and overwhelming nature of disaster that befalls those who reject wisdom.
• Theologically, "אֵיד" underscores the biblical theme of divine retribution and the moral order of the universe, where actions contrary to God's law inevitably lead to ruin and destruction.
