Strong's Lexicon sheqaarurah: Falsehood, Deception Original Word: שְׁקַעְרוּרָה Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁקַר (shakar), meaning "to be false" or "to lie." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for falsehood or deception in the Septuagint and the New Testament is often ψεῦδος (pseudos), Strong's Greek #5579, which carries a similar meaning of lying or falsehood. Usage: The term "sheqaarurah" refers to falsehood or deception, often used in the context of deceitful practices or lying. It conveys the idea of something that is not true or genuine, and it is typically used to describe actions or words that are intended to mislead or deceive others. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, truthfulness was a highly valued virtue, and falsehood was considered a serious moral failing. The Hebrew Scriptures frequently emphasize the importance of honesty and integrity, both in personal conduct and in communal life. Deception was seen as a violation of the covenant relationship with God, who is characterized by truth and faithfulness. The cultural context of the ancient Near East also placed a strong emphasis on the reliability of one's word, as social and economic transactions often depended on trust and honesty.
