Strong's Lexicon kaas: To provoke, to anger, to vex Original Word: כַּעַס Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3710 (orgizo): To provoke to anger, to be angry - G3949 (parorgizo): To provoke, to arouse to wrath Usage: The Hebrew verb "kaas" primarily means to provoke or to anger. It is often used in the context of causing irritation or inciting wrath, either in a human or divine context. The term can describe both the act of provoking someone to anger and the resulting state of being angry. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, emotions such as anger were understood as powerful forces that could disrupt community harmony and one's relationship with God. The Hebrew Bible often warns against actions that provoke divine anger, emphasizing the importance of obedience and reverence. Anger was seen as a natural human emotion, but one that needed to be controlled and directed appropriately, especially in maintaining covenantal relationships.
