Strong's Lexicon nasha: To deceive, to lead astray, to beguile Original Word: נָשָׁא Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G538: apataō (to deceive) - G4105: planaō (to lead astray, to deceive) Usage: The Hebrew verb "nasha" primarily means to deceive or lead astray. It is used in contexts where someone is misled or tricked, often with negative moral implications. The term can imply intentional deceit or the act of causing someone to believe something that is not true. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, deception was considered a serious moral failing, often associated with sin and rebellion against God. The act of deceiving others was seen as contrary to the values of truth and integrity that were central to the covenant relationship between God and His people. The Hebrew Scriptures frequently warn against deceit and highlight the importance of honesty and faithfulness.
