Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root verb שָׁגַג (shagag), which means to go astray or to err.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek term in the Septuagint and the New Testament that aligns with the concept of inadvertent sin is ἁμάρτημα (hamartema), which is Strong's Greek Number G52. This term similarly conveys the idea of a sin or error, often used in contexts where the nature of the sin is not deliberate. Usage: The word שְׁגָגָה is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe sins or transgressions that are committed unintentionally. It is often associated with the need for atonement and forgiveness, as these errors, though not deliberate, still require reconciliation with God. Context: שְׁגָגָה appears in several contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, primarily in the Pentateuch, where it is associated with the laws concerning sin offerings. In Leviticus 4:2, the term is used to describe sins committed unintentionally by individuals or the community: "Speak to the Israelites and say, 'When anyone sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the LORD’s commands—'" (BSB). The concept of שְׁגָגָה underscores the importance of maintaining a right relationship with God, even when transgressions are not willful. The sacrificial system provided a means for atonement, highlighting God's provision for human frailty and the need for repentance and correction. Numbers 15:28 further illustrates this, stating, "The priest is to make atonement before the LORD for the one who erred by sinning unintentionally, and when atonement has been made for him, he will be forgiven" (BSB). This reflects the theological understanding that all sin, whether intentional or not, disrupts the covenant relationship and requires divine forgiveness.
