It can refer to the physical act of turning something over or the metaphorical sense of a complete change or reversal of circumstances.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of overturning was often associated with God's intervention in human affairs, particularly in the context of judgment or deliverance. The idea of transformation or reversal is a common theme in the Hebrew Bible, reflecting the belief in God's sovereign power to change situations and destinies.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>the same as <a href="/hebrew/2016.htm">hephek</a>, q.v.<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>perversity, turning of things upside down <p>From <a href="/hebrew/2015.htm">haphak</a>; an upset, i.e. (abstract) perversity -- turning of things upside down. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/2015.htm">haphak</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>הַ֨פְכְּכֶ֔ם הפככם hafkeChem hap̄·kə·ḵem hap̄kəḵem<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/isaiah/29-16.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Isaiah 29:16</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/isaiah/29.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3"> <b> הַ֨פְכְּכֶ֔ם </b> אִם־ כְּחֹ֥מֶר</span><br><a href="/kjvs/isaiah/29.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> <span class="itali">Surely your turning of things upside down</span> shall be esteemed<br><a href="/interlinear/isaiah/29-16.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> <span class="itali">down</span> lo the clay<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_2017.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_2017.htm">Strong's Hebrew 2017<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/hafkechem_2017.htm">hap̄·kə·ḵem — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br /> <!-- /1078254/BH-728x90-ATF --> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br /> <!-- /1078254/BH-300x250-ATF --> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br /> <!-- /1078254/BH-728x90-BTF --> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br /> <!-- /1078254/BH-300x250-BTF --> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br /> <!-- /1078254/BH-728x90-BTF2 --> <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/2016.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="2016"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="2016" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/2018.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="2018"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="2018" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
