Strong's Lexicon shod: Destruction, devastation, ruin, violence, havoc Original Word: שֹׁד Word Origin: Derived from the root שׁוּד (shud), which means to devastate or ruin. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3639 (ὄλεθρος, olethros) - destruction, ruin - G684 (ἀπώλεια, apoleia) - destruction, waste, perdition Usage: The Hebrew word "shod" primarily denotes destruction or devastation, often in the context of violence or ruin brought upon a people or land. It is used to describe the physical and moral desolation that results from warfare, oppression, or divine judgment. The term conveys a sense of overwhelming force that leads to ruin and desolation. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, "shod" reflects the harsh realities of life in a region frequently beset by warfare and conquest. Cities and nations often faced destruction at the hands of invading armies, and the term captures the resulting chaos and loss. In the biblical narrative, "shod" is sometimes used to describe the consequences of Israel's disobedience to God, serving as a warning of the devastation that follows turning away from divine commandments.
