Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for rebellion is ἀποστασία (apostasia), Strong's Greek 646, which also conveys the idea of defection or revolt, particularly in a spiritual or religious context.

Usage: The term "marduth" refers to a state or act of rebellion or defiance, often against authority or established order. It conveys a sense of insubordination and resistance, typically in a negative context. In the Hebrew Bible, it is used to describe the rebellious nature of individuals or groups who oppose divine or human authority.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, rebellion was a serious offense, whether against God, kings, or societal norms. The concept of rebellion was not only a political or social issue but also a spiritual one, as it often implied a rejection of God's covenant and commandments. The Israelites' history is marked by periods of rebellion, which were met with prophetic warnings and calls for repentance.
