In the biblical context, it often denotes a contemptuous or dismissive attitude towards God, His people, or His commandments. Derision is portrayed as an expression of pride and unbelief, often associated with the wicked or those who oppose God's will. Biblical Instances of Derision: 1. Derision of God and His Prophets: Throughout the Bible, the prophets of God often faced derision from those who rejected their messages. For instance, the prophet Jeremiah experienced mockery and scorn from his contemporaries. In <a href="/jeremiah/20-7.htm">Jeremiah 20:7</a>, he laments, "I am ridiculed all day long; everyone mocks me." This derision was not merely personal but was directed at the message of God he carried. 2. Derision of the Righteous: The righteous often endure derision from the wicked. In <a href="/psalms/123-4.htm">Psalm 123:4</a>, the psalmist expresses the contempt they face: "We have endured much scorn from the arrogant, much contempt from the proud." This highlights the tension between those who follow God's ways and those who oppose them. 3. Derision of Jesus Christ: Jesus Christ Himself was subjected to derision, particularly during His trial and crucifixion. In <a href="/luke/23-35.htm">Luke 23:35</a>, it is recorded, "The people stood watching, and the rulers sneered at Him, saying, 'He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ of God, the Chosen One.'" This mockery was a fulfillment of the prophecies concerning the suffering Messiah and demonstrated the hardness of human hearts. 4. God's Response to Derision: The Bible also speaks of God's response to the derision of the wicked. In <a href="/psalms/2-4.htm">Psalm 2:4</a>, it is written, "The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them." This divine derision is not born of malice but is a demonstration of God's sovereignty and the futility of opposing His will. Theological Implications: · Pride and Unbelief: Derision is often rooted in pride and unbelief. Those who mock God or His people do so from a position of arrogance, failing to recognize their own need for repentance and salvation. · Perseverance of the Faithful: The faithful are called to endure derision with patience and trust in God. Jesus taught in <a href="/matthew/5-11.htm">Matthew 5:11-12</a>, "Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven." · Divine Justice: While derision may seem to prevail temporarily, the Bible assures believers of God's ultimate justice. Those who mock God and His people will face His righteous judgment, as seen in <a href="/proverbs/3-34.htm">Proverbs 3:34</a>, "He mocks the mockers but gives grace to the humble." Practical Application: Believers are encouraged to respond to derision with grace and truth, following the example of Christ. They are to remain steadfast in their faith, knowing that God sees and will vindicate them in His time. Engaging with those who mock with love and patience can sometimes open doors for witnessing and sharing the gospel.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
