Strong's Greek 1702 (ἐμπαίζω, empaizo) means to mock or ridicule, as seen in passages like Matthew 27:29, where Jesus is mocked by the soldiers.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The term "hathulim" refers to acts of mockery or jesting. It is used to describe behavior that involves making fun of or ridiculing others, often in a derisive or scornful manner. In the biblical context, such behavior is generally viewed negatively, as it can lead to discord and is contrary to the values of respect and love emphasized in Scripture.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, words and speech were considered powerful and significant. Mockery and jesting were not merely seen as harmless fun but could be perceived as damaging and disrespectful. The Hebrew Scriptures often caution against the misuse of words, emphasizing the importance of speaking truth and showing kindness. In a communal society, maintaining harmony and respect was crucial, and mockery could disrupt social cohesion.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/2048.htm">hathal</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>mockery<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>mockers (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">הֲתֻלִֿים</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun [masculine] plural</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>mockery</b></font>; — <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">אִםלֹֿא ה</font> <font class="hebrew2">עִמָּדִי</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/17-2.htm">Job 17:2</a> <em>truly mockery surroundeth me</em> (De Di Da compare VB). <p><font class="hebrew2">מַהֲתַלּוֺת</font> </p><p style="sub1"> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine plural</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>deceptions</b></font>; — <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/30-10.htm">Isaiah 30:10</a>.<br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>mocker <p>From <a href="/hebrew/2048.htm">hathal</a> (only in plural collectively); a derision -- mocker. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/2048.htm">hathal</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>הֲ֭תֻלִים התלים hă·ṯu·lîm Hatulim hăṯulîm<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/job/17-2.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Job 17:2</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/job/17.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">אִם־ לֹ֣א <b> הֲ֭תֻלִים </b> עִמָּדִ֑י וּ֝בְהַמְּרוֹתָ֗ם</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/job/17.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> Surely <span class="itali">mockers</span> are with me, And my eye<br><a href="/kjvs/job/17.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> <span class="itali">[Are there] not mockers</span> with me?
