Strong's Lexicon terumiyyah: Deceit, Fraud Original Word: תְּרוּמִיָּה Word Origin: Derived from the root תְּרוּמָה (terumah), meaning "offering" or "contribution." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the concept of deceit is captured in Greek by words such as δόλος (dolos, Strong's G1388) and ἀπάτη (apate, Strong's G539). Usage: The term "terumiyyah" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote deceit or fraudulent behavior. It conveys a sense of treachery or betrayal, often in the context of interpersonal relationships or dealings. The word emphasizes the moral and ethical breach involved in deceitful actions. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, honesty and integrity were highly valued, especially in community and religious life. Deceit was seen as a violation of the covenantal relationship between individuals and God. The Hebrew Scriptures frequently address the issue of deceit, warning against it and highlighting its destructive consequences. The cultural context underscores the importance of trust and faithfulness in maintaining social harmony and religious fidelity.
