It denotes a sense of overbearing pride that leads to mistreatment of others, often in defiance of God’s laws and principles. This term is used to describe actions that are not only disrespectful but also harmful and unjust.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, "hubris" was a significant concept often associated with excessive pride or self-confidence that led to retribution or downfall. It was considered a serious offense, especially when it involved disrespecting the gods or other people. In the context of the New Testament, "hubris" reflects a moral failing that stands in opposition to the humility and meekness taught by Jesus Christ.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 5196</b> <i>hýbris</i> (a feminine noun) – that type (brand) of <i>damage</i> or <i>injury</i> where the reproach <i>adds</i> "<i>insult to injury</i>." <a href="/greek/5195.htm">See 5195</a> (<i>hybrizō</i>).</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>a prim. word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>wantonness, insolence, an act of wanton violence<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>damage (2), insults (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 5196: ὕβρις</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ὕβρις</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ὑβρισεως</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (from <span class="greek2">ὑπέρ</span> ((see <span class="abbreviation">Curtius</span>, p. 540); cf.
