It can refer to physical appetites, such as hunger or lust, but also to broader desires that may lead one away from God's will. In the Old Testament, "taavah" is frequently used to describe desires that are contrary to God's commands, highlighting the tension between human inclinations and divine expectations.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, desires were understood as powerful forces that could lead individuals either towards righteousness or sin. The concept of "taavah" reflects the biblical worldview that human desires must be aligned with God's will to maintain covenantal faithfulness. The Israelites were often warned against succumbing to their "taavah" for things like foreign gods, wealth, or forbidden foods, which could lead them away from their covenant relationship with Yahweh.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/183.htm">avah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a desire<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>delight (1), desire (14), desires* (1), favorite (1), greedy (1), intensely (1), what is desirable (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">תַּאֲוָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>desire</b></font> — absolute <a href="/interlinear/genesis/3-6.htm">Genesis 3:6</a> +; construct <font class="hebrew2">תַּאֲוַת</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/10-3.htm">Psalm 10:3</a> + etc.; — <em>desire, wish</em> <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/13-12.htm">Proverbs 13:12,19</a>; <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/18-1.htm">Proverbs 18:1</a>; of physical appetite, longing for dainty food <font class="hebrew2">מַאֲכַל</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ת</font> <a href="/interlinear/job/33-20.htm">Job 33:20</a>; distinctly good sense <a href="/interlinear/psalms/10-17.htm">Psalm 10:17</a>; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/38-10.htm">Psalm 38:10</a>; <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/11-23.htm">Proverbs 11:23</a>; <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/19-22.htm">Proverbs 19:22</a> (? compare below) <a href="/interlinear/isaiah/26-8.htm">Isaiah 26:8</a> (<font class="hebrew2">נָֿ֑פֶשׁ</font><font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">לְשִׁמְךָ וּלְזִכְרְךָ ת</font>); bad sense, <em>lust, appetite, covetousness</em> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/10-3.htm">Psalm 10:3</a> (<font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ת</font> <font class="hebrew2">נַפְשׁוֺ</font>) <a href="/interlinear/psalms/112-10.htm">Psalm 112:10</a>; <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/21-25.htm">Proverbs 21:25</a>,26 (as accusative of cognate meaning); particularly of longing for dainties of Egypt <a href="/interlinear/numbers/11-4.htm">Numbers 11:4</a>; <a href="/interlinear/psalms/106-14.htm">Psalm 106:14</a> (both accusative of cognate meaning) <a href="/interlinear/psalms/78-30.htm">Psalm 78:30</a> & in <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>given to place where it occurred</b></font> <font class="hebrew2">קִבְרוֺת הַתַּאֲוָה</font> (q. v.) <a href="/interlinear/numbers/11-34.htm">Numbers 11:34,35</a>; <a href="/interlinear/numbers/33-16.htm">Numbers 33:16,17</a>; <a href="/interlinear/deuteronomy/9-22.htm">Deuteronomy 9:22</a>. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2</b></font> <em>thing desired</em>, in good sense <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/10-24.htm">Proverbs 10:24</a>; bad sense <a href="/interlinear/psalms/78-29.htm">Psalm 78:29</a> so <font class="hebrew2">לִבּוֺ</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ת</font> <a href="/interlinear/psalms/21-3.htm">Psalm 21:3</a>; <em>thing desirable</em> (to senses) <a href="/interlinear/genesis/3-6.htm">Genesis 3:6</a> (<font class="hebrew2">לְעֵינַיִם</font> <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">ת</font>); perhaps also <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/19-22.htm">Proverbs 19:22</a> <em>the ornament of a man is his kindness</em> (Ra Ki, etc. but compare above) <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>dainty, desire, exceedingly, greedily, lusting, pleasant <p>From <a href="/hebrew/183.htm">'avah</a> (abbreviated); a longing; by implication, a delight (subjectively, satisfaction, objectively, a charm) -- dainty, desire, X exceedingly, X greedily, lust(ing), pleasant.
