Strong's Lexicon shaon: Uproar, tumult, noise, commotion Original Word: שָׁאוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁאָה (sha'ah), which means to crash, make a loud noise, or be desolate. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the concept of "shaon" can be related to Greek words like θόρυβος (thorubos - G2351), meaning noise or uproar, often used in the New Testament to describe tumultuous crowds or disturbances. Usage: The Hebrew word "shaon" is used to describe a loud, chaotic noise or tumult. It often conveys a sense of disorder or confusion, typically associated with large crowds, battles, or the clamor of cities. The term can also imply a sense of desolation or destruction that follows such chaos. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of "shaon" would have been familiar in the context of city life, where markets, gatherings, and military activities created significant noise. The tumultuous sounds of war, celebrations, or divine judgment were common experiences for the Israelites, and "shaon" captures the overwhelming nature of these events. The word reflects the ancient Near Eastern understanding of chaos as both a physical and spiritual reality, often associated with divine intervention or judgment.
