In the context of the Bible, it often refers to actions or offerings intended to calm anger or avert judgment, particularly in relation to God or interpersonal relationships.<br><br><b>Biblical Context and Usage</b><br><br>1. <b>Divine Appeasement</b>: In the Old Testament, the concept of appeasement is frequently associated with offerings and sacrifices made to God. These acts were intended to atone for sin and restore a right relationship between the people and God. The sacrificial system established in the Mosaic Law was a means by which the Israelites could appease God's righteous anger against sin. <a href="/bsb/leviticus/1.htm">Leviticus 1-7</a> outlines various offerings, including burnt offerings, grain offerings, and sin offerings, which were made to atone for different transgressions.<br><br>2. <b>Interpersonal Appeasement</b>: The Bible also addresses appeasement in the context of human relationships. <a href="/proverbs/15-18.htm">Proverbs 15:18</a> states, "A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger calms a dispute." Here, the act of being slow to anger and calming a dispute can be seen as a form of appeasement, promoting peace and reconciliation.<br><br>3. <b>Appeasement in Narrative Accounts</b>: Several biblical narratives illustrate the concept of appeasement. In <a href="/bsb/genesis/32.htm">Genesis 32-33</a>, Jacob seeks to appease his brother Esau, whom he had wronged, by sending gifts ahead of their meeting. <a href="/genesis/32-20.htm">Genesis 32:20</a> records Jacob's thought process: "For he thought, 'I will appease him with the gift that is going ahead of me. After that I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me.'"<br><br>4. <b>Theological Implications</b>: Theologically, the ultimate appeasement of God's wrath is found in the New Testament through the atoning work of Jesus Christ. <a href="/romans/3-25.htm">Romans 3:25</a> states, "God presented Him as the atoning sacrifice through faith in His blood, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance He had passed over the sins committed beforehand." Here, Christ's sacrifice is seen as the ultimate act of appeasement, satisfying God's justice and allowing for reconciliation between God and humanity.<br><br><b>Related Concepts</b><br><br>· <b>Propitiation</b>: Closely related to appeasement, propitiation refers to the act of appeasing or satisfying the wrath of God. It is a key concept in understanding the atonement provided by Christ's sacrifice.<br> <br>· <b>Atonement</b>: The process by which reconciliation is achieved between God and humanity. In the Old Testament, this was accomplished through sacrifices; in the New Testament, through the sacrifice of Jesus.<br><br>· <b>Reconciliation</b>: The restoration of a right relationship between parties, particularly between God and humans, as a result of appeasement and atonement.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The concept of appeasement in the Bible underscores the seriousness of sin and the necessity of restoring peace and right relationships, both with God and among individuals. Through the sacrificial system and ultimately through Christ's atoning work, the Bible presents a comprehensive view of how divine and human wrath can be appeased, leading to reconciliation and peace.<a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/aquinas/summa_theologica/whether_one_ought_to_suffer.htm"><span class="l">Whether one Ought to Suffer Oneself to be Reviled?</span></a> <br><b>...</b> Now one ought not to suffer another to be reviled, wherefore it is written<br> (Prov.26:10): "He that putteth a fool to silence <b>appeaseth</b> anger."
