Another related term is "φορτίζω" (G5412), meaning to load or burden.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew verb "tarach" primarily conveys the idea of causing trouble or imposing a burden. It is used to describe actions that lead to weariness or difficulty, often in a physical or emotional sense. The term can imply an unnecessary or excessive burden placed upon someone, leading to fatigue or distress.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of burden was both literal and metaphorical. Physical burdens were common in agrarian and nomadic societies, where carrying loads was part of daily life. Metaphorically, burdens could also refer to social, emotional, or spiritual pressures. The Hebrew Scriptures often address the theme of burdens, emphasizing God's role in alleviating them and calling for justice and compassion in human relationships.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to toil, be burdened<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>loads (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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">טָרַח</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>toil, be burdened</b></font> (Late Hebrew <em>id., toil</em>, Hiph`il <em>weary, importune</em>;
