Core Meaningsbadness, harm, injury, adversity, moral evil, ruin
Semantic Rangemoral evil, wicked persons, harmful things, disastrous events, misfortune, adversity, distress
Conceptual SignificanceThis term expresses both moral corruption and experiential adversity in the Hebrew Bible, reflecting a worldview in which evil can describe ethical wickedness, destructive actions, or calamitous circumstances under divine sovereignty.
