Strong's Lexicon Shachatsom: Contempt, disdain Original Word: שׁחֲצוֹם Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁחַץ (shachats), which means to look down upon or to despise. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for contempt is ἐξουθενέω (exoutheneō), Strong's Greek 1848, which also means to despise or treat with scorn. Usage: The term "Shachatsom" is used to denote a sense of contempt or disdain. It reflects an attitude of looking down upon something or someone with scorn or derision. In the biblical context, it often describes the attitude of the wicked towards the righteous or the disregard of God's commandments. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, honor and shame were significant cultural values. To hold someone in contempt was to publicly shame them, which could have severe social and religious implications. The concept of contempt was not only a personal sentiment but also a communal judgment that could affect one's standing within the community. The Israelites were called to uphold God's laws and to treat others with respect and dignity, making contempt a serious moral failing.
