Strong's Lexicon taah: To err, to wander, to go astray Original Word: תָּעָה Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - πλανάω (planáō) - Strong's Greek 4105: To lead astray, to deceive, to wander Usage: The Hebrew verb "taah" primarily conveys the idea of straying or wandering, both physically and metaphorically. It is often used to describe the act of going astray from a path, whether it be a literal path or a figurative one, such as the path of righteousness or truth. The term can imply a sense of being lost or misguided, and it is frequently used in contexts where individuals or groups deviate from God's commandments or guidance. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of wandering or going astray was significant, as it often related to the nomadic lifestyle of the people and their dependence on guidance for survival. The imagery of wandering sheep or a lost traveler was a powerful metaphor for spiritual and moral deviation. The Israelites' history, including their wilderness wanderings and periods of idolatry, provided a backdrop for understanding the consequences of straying from God's covenant.
