These Greek terms share thematic elements with עָנַג (ʿānag), particularly in the context of nurturing, indulgence, and luxury. They reflect similar ideas of delight and pleasure, whether in a positive or negative light, within the New Testament writings.

Usage: The verb עָנַג (ʿānag) is used in the Hebrew Bible to convey the idea of being delicate or taking delight in something. It often implies a sense of luxury or indulgence, sometimes with a negative connotation of effeminacy or excessive softness.

Context: The Hebrew root עָנַג (ʿānag) appears in various contexts within the Old Testament, often associated with the concept of delight or pleasure. It is used to describe a state of being that is characterized by softness or luxury, sometimes implying a lack of strength or robustness. This term can be found in passages that discuss the enjoyment of God's blessings or the indulgence in worldly pleasures.

For example, in Isaiah 58:14, the term is used in a positive sense: "Then you will delight yourself in the LORD, and I will make you ride on the heights of the land and feed you with the heritage of your father Jacob." Here, the idea of delighting in the LORD suggests a deep, spiritual pleasure and satisfaction.

Conversely, the term can also carry a negative connotation, as seen in contexts where it describes a lifestyle of excessive luxury or indulgence that leads to moral or spiritual decay. The root עָנַג (ʿānag) thus serves as a reminder of the balance between enjoying God's gifts and avoiding the pitfalls of overindulgence.
