Berean Strong's Lexicon ashmannim: Guilty ones, offenders Original Word: אַשְׁמַנִּים Word Origin: Derived from the root word אָשַׁם (asham), which means "to be guilty" or "to incur guilt." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for concepts of guilt or sin is ἁμαρτωλός (hamartolos), meaning "sinner" or "sinful." Usage: The term "ashmannim" refers to individuals who are guilty or have committed offenses, particularly in a moral or legal sense. It is used to describe those who have transgressed against divine law and are thus considered culpable or blameworthy. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of guilt was closely tied to the covenantal relationship between God and His people. The Law, given through Moses, outlined the standards of righteousness and justice. Transgressing these laws resulted in guilt, which required atonement through sacrifices and offerings. The community's understanding of guilt was not only legal but also deeply spiritual, as it affected one's standing before God and the community.
