It often conveys a sense of discontent or rebellion against authority, whether divine or human. This term is typically used in contexts where individuals or groups express dissatisfaction with circumstances or leadership, often in a covert or subdued manner.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, public discourse and rhetoric were highly valued, but "gogguzó" represents a more private, less formal expression of discontent. In Jewish culture, murmuring against God or His appointed leaders was seen as a serious offense, reflecting a lack of faith and trust in God's provision and plan. This concept is rooted in the Old Testament, where the Israelites frequently murmured against Moses and God during their wilderness journey.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>1111</b> <i>goggýzō</i> (an onomatopoetic term imitating the sound of cooing doves) – to murmur or mutter (grumble) with muffled undertones; (figuratively) murmur, grumble; to show "smoldering discontent" (Souter), droning on in a low, constant murmur.</p><p class="discovery">[Examples of onomatopoetic words in <i>English</i> (mimicking particular sounds) include: <i>bubble</i>, <i>murmur</i>, and <i>grumble</i> (see <i>WP</i>, 1, 160).]</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>onomatop.<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to mutter, murmur<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>did (1), grumble (2), grumbled (2), grumbling (2), muttering (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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1111: γογγύζω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">γογγύζω</span></span>; imperfect <span class="greek2">ἐγόγγυζον</span>; 1 aorist <span class="greek2">ἐγογγυσα</span>; <span class="accented">to murmur, mutter, grumble, say anything in a low tone</span> (according to <span class="abbreviation">Pollux</span> and <span class="abbreviation">Phavorinus</span> used of the cooing of doves, like the <span class="greek2">τονθρύζω</span> and <span class="greek2">τονθορύζω</span> of the more elegant Greek writings; cf. <span class="abbreviation">Lob. ad Phryn.</span>, p. 358; (<span class="abbreviation">Winer</span>s Grammar, 22; <span class="abbreviation">Lightfoot</span> on <a href="/interlinear/philippians/2-14.htm">Philippians 2:14</a>)); hence, of those who confer together secretly, <span class="greek2">τί</span> <span class="greek2">περί</span> <span class="greek2">τίνος</span>, <a href="/interlinear/john/7-32.htm">John 7:32</a>; of those who discontentedly complain: <a href="/interlinear/1_corinthians/10-10.htm">1 Corinthians 10:10</a>; <span class="greek2">πρός</span> <span class="greek2">τινα</span>, <a href="/interlinear/luke/5-30.htm">Luke 5:30</a>; <span class="greek2">μετ'</span> <span class="greek2">ἀλλήλων</span>, <a href="/interlinear/john/6-43.htm">John 6:43</a>; <span class="greek2">κατά</span> <span class="greek2">ἰτνος</span>, <a href="/interlinear/matthew/20-11.htm">Matthew 20:11</a>; <span class="greek2">περί</span> <span class="greek2">τίνος</span>, <a href="/interlinear/john/6-41.htm">John 6:41, 61</a>.
