It implies a sense of dissatisfaction or discontent that is expressed in a subdued or secretive manner. This term is often used in contexts where there is a communal or collective expression of discontent, typically against leadership or divine provision.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, public discourse and expression of dissatisfaction were common, especially in political and social contexts. The act of murmuring or grumbling was often seen as a form of passive resistance or dissent. In the Jewish context, murmuring against God or His appointed leaders was considered a serious offense, reflecting a lack of faith and trust in divine providence.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>1234</b> <i>diagoggýzō</i> (an onomatopoetic term imitating the sound of cooing doves and humming bees) – constantly, intensely <i>murmur</i> (grumble, complain) – an intensified form of <a href="/greek/1111.htm">1111</a> <i>/goggýzō</i> ("murmur") to convey "<i>heavy complaining</i>," i.e. the <i>constant</i> "buzz" of negative murmuring (note the prefix, <i>dia</i>).</p><p class="discovery">[Lk 5:30 uses the simple form (<a href="/greek/1111.htm">1111</a> <i>/goggýzō</i>), which likewise is uncommon.
