Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2372 (thumos): Refers to passion, anger, or wrath, often used in the New Testament to describe intense emotions.
• G2373 (thumoo): To provoke or to be provoked to anger.
• G3076 (lupeo): To cause grief or to be in distress, sometimes associated with anger.
• G3709 (orge): Anger, wrath, or indignation, frequently used to describe God's wrath.

• G3949 (parorgismos): Provocation or irritation leading to anger.

These Greek terms provide a broader understanding of the concept of anger and wrath as it is expressed in the New Testament, paralleling the Hebrew קָצַף in its depiction of intense emotional responses.

Usage: The verb קָצַף (qāṣap) is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe a sudden outburst of anger or rage. It often conveys the idea of divine wrath or human anger that is intense and explosive.

Context: The Hebrew verb קָצַף (qāṣap) appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, primarily to describe instances of anger or wrath. This term is often used to depict the anger of God against sin and disobedience, as well as human anger in interpersonal conflicts.

In the context of divine anger, קָצַף is frequently associated with God's righteous indignation against the Israelites' idolatry and rebellion. For example, in Deuteronomy 9:19, Moses recounts, "For I was afraid of the anger and wrath that the LORD had kindled against you to destroy you. But the LORD listened to me that time as well." Here, קָצַף is used to describe the intensity of God's anger, which was mitigated through Moses' intercession.

Human anger is also depicted using קָצַף, as seen in the narrative of King Asa in 2 Chronicles 16:10: "Asa was angry with the seer and put him in prison because of his rage against him for this." This illustrates how קָצַף can describe a personal, uncontrolled outburst of anger.

The term is used in various forms throughout the Old Testament, including participles and infinitives, to convey the concept of anger that is both sudden and intense. It is a vivid term that captures the explosive nature of wrath, whether divine or human.
