Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of loathing or disgust can be related to Greek terms such as "βδελύσσομαι" (bdelussomai - to detest) found in the New Testament.

Usage: The Hebrew verb "quts" primarily conveys a sense of loathing or disgust. It is often used to describe a strong emotional reaction of aversion or weariness towards something or someone. This term can also imply a sense of being fed up or having reached a point of intolerance.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, emotions such as loathing or disgust were often expressed in vivid terms. The Hebrew language, with its rich vocabulary, captures these intense feelings. The concept of "quts" reflects a deep-seated emotional response, often in reaction to prolonged exposure to something undesirable or intolerable. This could be in the context of personal relationships, societal conditions, or spiritual states.
