This term is used in passages like Philippians 2:12, where believers are encouraged to "work out your salvation with fear and trembling."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew verb "yagor" conveys the idea of fear or dread, often in the context of a reverential or awe-filled fear. It is used to describe the emotional response of individuals when confronted with situations that evoke a sense of fear or respect, particularly in relation to God or His commands.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, fear was not merely an emotional response but also a recognition of the power and authority of God. The concept of fearing God was central to the Israelites' covenant relationship with Him, emphasizing obedience, reverence, and worship. Fear of God was seen as the beginning of wisdom and a guiding principle for righteous living.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/3025.htm">yagor</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>fearing<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>dread (2).<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">יָגוֺר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verbal adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>fearing</b></font>, men <font class="hebrew2">מִמְּנֵיהַם אֲשֶׁר אַתָּה יָגוֺר</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/22-25.htm">Jeremiah 22:25</a>;
