It conveys the idea of a quarrel or a situation where there is discord and disagreement. In the biblical context, it is used to describe situations where there is a breakdown of harmony and peace, leading to arguments or disputes.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, maintaining peace and harmony within the community was of utmost importance. Disputes and contentions were often seen as threats to the social fabric and were addressed through various means, including legal proceedings, mediation by elders, or direct intervention by leaders. The concept of "shalom" (peace) was central to the community's well-being, and "tigrah" represented a disruption of this peace.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1624.htm">garah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>contention, strife, hostility<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>opposition (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">תִּגְרָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>contention, strife, hostility</b></font> (compare Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">תִּגְרָא</font>, often <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font>;
