It conveys a sense of contempt and ridicule, often directed towards individuals or groups. In the biblical context, it is used to describe the scornful attitude of people towards God, His prophets, or His commandments.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, mockery was a serious offense, especially when directed towards God or His anointed leaders. It was seen as a sign of disrespect and rebellion against divine authority. The Hebrew culture placed a high value on honor and respect, and mockery was considered a violation of these principles. The prophets often faced mockery from those who rejected their messages, reflecting the spiritual rebellion of the people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/7046.htm">qalas</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>derision<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>mocking (1).<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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">קַלָּסָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> id., "" <em>id.</em>; — <a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/22-4.htm">Ezekiel 22:4</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>mocking <p>Intensive from <a href="/hebrew/7046.htm">qalac</a>; ridicule -- mocking. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/7046.htm">qalac</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>וְקַלָּסָ֖ה וקלסה vekallaSah wə·qal·lā·sāh wəqallāsāh<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/ezekiel/22-4.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Ezekiel 22:4</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/22.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">חֶרְפָּה֙ לַגּוֹיִ֔ם <b> וְקַלָּסָ֖ה </b> לְכָל־ הָאֲרָצֽוֹת׃</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/ezekiel/22.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> to the nations <span class="itali">and a mocking</span> to all<br><a href="/kjvs/ezekiel/22.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> unto the heathen, <span class="itali">and a mocking</span> to all countries.<br><a href="/interlinear/ezekiel/22-4.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> A reproach to the nations <span class="itali">mocking</span> to all the lands<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_7048.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_7048.htm">Strong's Hebrew 7048<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/vekallasah_7048.htm">wə·qal·lā·sāh — 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 />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <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/7047.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="7047"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="7047" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/7049.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="7049"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="7049" /></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>
