In the New Testament, it is often used in contexts where individuals are warned against actions that would lead to shame before God or others. It can also imply a sense of being put to shame or being humiliated.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, honor and shame were pivotal social values. Honor was associated with social standing and moral integrity, while shame was seen as a loss of status and respect. The concept of shame was not only personal but also communal, affecting one's family and community. In the Jewish context, shame was often linked to disobedience to God's commandments and was seen as a consequence of sin.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from aischos (shame, disgrace)<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to dishonor, make ashamed<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>ashamed (2), put to shame (2), shame (1), shrink (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">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 153: αἰσχύνω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">αἰσχύνω</span></span>: (<span class="greek2">αἶσχος</span> (cf. <span class="greek2"><span class="lexref">αἰσχρός</span></span>)); <p><span class="textheading">1.</span> <span class="accented">to disfigure</span>: <span class="greek2">πρόσωπον</span>, <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span>, Iliad 18, 24, and many others. <p><span class="textheading">2.</span> <span class="accented">to dishonor</span>: the <span class="manuref">Sept.</span> <a href="/interlinear/proverbs/29-15.htm">Proverbs 29:15</a>. <p><span class="textheading">3.</span> <span class="accented">to suffuse with shame, make ashamed</span>: Sir. 13:7.
