It is used to describe events, entities, or attributes that evoke a profound sense of respect or fear due to their overwhelming nature. In the context of the Scriptures, "terrible" can refer to both divine and earthly phenomena, reflecting the majesty and might of God as well as the formidable nature of certain events or judgments. Divine Majesty and Power In many instances, "terrible" is used to describe the awe-inspiring power and majesty of God. This usage underscores the reverence and fear that His presence commands. For example, in <a href="/psalms/47-2.htm">Psalm 47:2</a> , it is written, "For the LORD Most High is awesome, the great King over all the earth." Here, the term "awesome" is synonymous with "terrible," highlighting God's supreme authority and the reverence due to Him. Similarly, in <a href="/deuteronomy/10-17.htm">Deuteronomy 10:17</a> , the text states, "For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God, showing no partiality and accepting no bribe." This passage emphasizes God's unparalleled power and justice, evoking a sense of awe and respect. Judgment and Wrath The term "terrible" is also associated with God's judgment and wrath, often depicted as fearsome and overwhelming. In <a href="/joel/2-11.htm">Joel 2:11</a> , the prophet describes the day of the Lord: "The LORD raises His voice in the presence of His army. Indeed, His camp is very large, for mighty are those who obey His command. For the day of the LORD is great and very terrible—who can endure it?" This passage illustrates the fearsome nature of divine judgment, emphasizing the power and authority of God in executing His will. Earthly Events and Entities In addition to divine attributes, "terrible" is used to describe certain earthly events and entities that inspire fear or awe. In the context of warfare, for example, the term is used to convey the formidable nature of armies or battles. In <a href="/songs/6-4.htm">Song of Solomon 6:4</a> , the beloved is described as "majestic as troops with banners," where the imagery of a "terrible" army conveys both beauty and power. Fear and Reverence The use of "terrible" in the Bible often serves to remind believers of the importance of fearing the Lord in a manner that is rooted in reverence and awe. <a href="/proverbs/9-10.htm">Proverbs 9:10</a> states, "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." This fear is not one of terror but of profound respect and acknowledgment of God's greatness and holiness. In summary, the term "terrible" in the Bible is multifaceted, encompassing the awe-inspiring nature of God, the fearsome aspects of His judgment, and the formidable characteristics of certain earthly phenomena. It serves as a reminder of the power and majesty of the divine, calling believers to a posture of reverence and respect.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
