It is often used in the context of personal relationships, enmity, or moral and spiritual opposition. In the Old Testament, "sena" can describe both human emotions and God's righteous indignation against sin and idolatry.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, emotions such as love and hate were often expressed in terms of covenantal relationships. To "hate" could imply a breach of covenant or loyalty, whether between individuals or between people and God. The concept of hate in the Hebrew Bible is not merely emotional but often involves actions that demonstrate opposition or rejection.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/8130.htm">sane</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to hate<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>hate (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">שְׂנָא</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>hate</b></font> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> <font class="hebrew2">סְנָא</font>, Syriac <img src="/bdbgif/bdb111401.gif">;
