It is used in the New Testament to describe situations of turmoil or agitation, whether within an individual or among groups of people.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of "ταραχή" would have been understood in both personal and communal contexts. Personal turmoil could refer to inner emotional distress, while communal disturbance might involve social or political unrest. The New Testament context often reflects the tension between the early Christian community and the surrounding society, as well as the internal struggles believers faced.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 5016</b> <i>taraxḗ</i> – agitation. <a href="/greek/5015.htm">See 5015</a> (<i>tarassō</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>from <a href="/greek/5015.htm">tarassó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a disturbance, stirring up<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>stirring (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 5016: ταραχή</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ταραχή</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ταραχῆς</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">παράσσω</span>), from (<span class="abbreviation">Pindar</span>), <span class="abbreviation">Herodotus</span> down, <span class="accented">disturbance, commotion</span>: properly, <span class="greek2">τοῦ</span> <span class="greek2">ὕδατος</span>, <a href="/interlinear/john/5-4.htm">John 5:4</a> (<span class="manuref">R</span> <span class="manuref">L</span>);
