Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of punishment is "τιμωρία" (timoria), Strong's Greek #5098, which also conveys the idea of retribution or penalty.

Usage: The Hebrew word "onesh" refers to a punishment or penalty, often in the context of a legal or moral consequence for wrongdoing. It is used to describe the retributive justice that follows an offense, emphasizing the concept of accountability and the necessity of recompense for actions that violate divine or societal laws.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of "onesh" was integral to maintaining order and justice. The legal system, as outlined in the Torah, included various forms of punishment for different transgressions, ranging from fines and restitution to more severe penalties. This system was designed to reflect the holiness and justice of God, who is portrayed as the ultimate judge. The idea of punishment was not only about retribution but also about restoration and deterrence, aiming to bring the offender back into right relationship with God and the community.
