It is often used in contexts where there is a deep-seated grudge or hatred, sometimes leading to active opposition or hostility. The term implies a persistent and enduring form of enmity, rather than a fleeting or momentary feeling.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, personal relationships and community harmony were highly valued. The concept of "satam" reflects the disruption of these relationships through sustained animosity. Bearing a grudge was seen as detrimental not only to personal relationships but also to the community's well-being. The Hebrew Scriptures often emphasize reconciliation and forgiveness as means to restore harmony and reflect God's character.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span
