Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive rootCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G393 (ἀναπνέω, anapneō): To breathe again, recover breath Usage: The term is used in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often metaphorically, to describe actions related to breath or air, such as blowing, fanning, or expressing disdain. Context: The Hebrew verb פוּחַ (puach) is a primitive root that conveys the action of blowing or puffing, often with the breath. This term is used in several contexts throughout the Old Testament, illustrating both literal and figurative actions. For instance, it can describe the act of blowing air, as in fanning a flame or kindling a fire, which is a common practice in ancient times for sustaining or igniting a fire. Additionally, פוּחַ can be used metaphorically to describe the act of uttering words, particularly in a manner that is disdainful or scoffing.
