Usage: The term צַעֲקָה is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a loud cry or outcry, typically in situations of distress or urgent need for divine intervention. It is often used in contexts where individuals or groups are calling out to God or others for help. Context: צַעֲקָה (tsa'akah) appears in various contexts throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, often conveying a sense of urgency and desperation. It is used to describe the cries of the oppressed, the pleas of those in distress, and the outcries of those seeking justice or deliverance. For example, in Exodus 3:7, God acknowledges the cries of the Israelites under Egyptian bondage: "The LORD said, 'I have surely seen the affliction of My people in Egypt, and I have heard their cry (צַעֲקָה) because of their taskmasters, for I know their sufferings.'" This highlights the compassionate response of God to the cries of His people.
