Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive rootCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G868 (ἀφίστημι, aphistēmi): This Greek term is often used in the New Testament to describe the act of departing, withdrawing, or falling away, which aligns with the concept of apostatizing as seen in the Hebrew מָסַר. It conveys a similar sense of separation or turning away, particularly in a spiritual or relational context. Usage: The verb מָסַר (masar) is used in the Hebrew Bible to convey the action of separating or setting apart, often with a connotation of turning away or apostatizing. It can imply a physical or metaphorical separation, such as the act of delivering or handing over something or someone, or the act of turning away from a previously held belief or allegiance. Context: The Hebrew root מָסַר (masar) appears in various contexts within the Old Testament, often associated with the act of delivering or handing over. This can be seen in narratives where individuals or groups are delivered into the hands of others, whether in a positive or negative sense. The term also carries a significant theological weight when used in the context of apostasy, indicating a turning away from faith or covenantal obligations. The act of apostatizing, as suggested by מָסַר, involves a deliberate separation from previously held commitments or beliefs, often resulting in spiritual or communal consequences. The usage of מָסַר in the Hebrew Bible underscores the gravity of such actions, highlighting the themes of faithfulness, loyalty, and the consequences of turning away from divine commandments.
