Bible Question:
The merchants among the people hiss over you [with malicious joy]; you have become a horror and a source of terrors. You shall be no more [forever]. what does the word hiss mean in greek or the use of it in this verse |
Bible Answer: Dear Debbie...Welcome to the Forum :-) This word is a Hebrew word (OT) not Greek. In Hebrew this word appears 12 times in the Bible. Seven times it means "scoff", One time it means "hiss", one time it means "hisses", one time it means "signal", one time it means "whistle", and one time it is translated as "whistles." In the verse you give it may be understood possibly as "scoff" but look at Jer 46:22 where it can only mean hiss as a snake hisses. The hiss is a sound of a snake of course. I hope this helps and we all look forward to hearing from you again. God Bless....Jensen |
