Strong's Lexicon tsuth: To incite, to provoke Original Word: צוּת Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of incitement or provocation can be related to Greek terms such as "παροξύνω" (paroxynō - Strong's Greek 3947), which means to provoke or to stir up, often used in the New Testament to describe incitement to anger or contention. Usage: The Hebrew verb "tsuth" primarily means to incite or provoke. It is used in contexts where an individual or group is stirred up to action, often with a negative connotation of being provoked to anger or conflict. The term suggests an external influence that causes a reaction, typically leading to strife or contention. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of incitement was significant, as it often related to the stirring up of individuals or groups to action, whether in warfare, rebellion, or other forms of conflict. The Hebrew society, with its tribal and communal structure, was sensitive to actions that could disrupt harmony and lead to division. The idea of incitement was not only a social concern but also a spiritual one, as it could lead people away from God's commandments and towards sin.
