It is often used in the context of moral or legal transgressions, indicating a state of having committed a wrong that requires atonement or restitution. The term can also imply the feeling of guilt or the acknowledgment of wrongdoing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, the concept of guilt was closely tied to the covenantal relationship between God and His people. The Law, given through Moses, outlined specific commandments and statutes that the Israelites were to follow. Transgressing these laws resulted in guilt, which necessitated offerings and sacrifices to restore the relationship with God. The guilt offering, or "asham," was a specific type of sacrifice prescribed for certain offenses, emphasizing the need for atonement and reconciliation.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/816.htm">asham</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>guilty<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>guilty (2), offense (1), one who (1), one who is guilty (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">אָשֵׁם</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>guilty</b></font>, <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">א</font> absolute <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/14-13.htm">2 Samuel 14:13</a>; plural <font class="hebrew2">אֲשֵׁמִים</font> <font class="hebrew2">אֶלאָֿחִינוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/42-21.htm">Genesis 42:21</a> (E); <em>guilty</em>, and so bound to offer a trespass-offering <a href="/interlinear/ezra/10-19.htm">Ezra 10:19</a>; but read probably <font class="hebrew2">וַאֲשָׁמָם</font>, so Kue<sup>Chronol. see h.
