H0973a H0973a
to feel loathing, be disgusted with (someone)
This rare verb captures visceral emotional rejection, appearing once in Zechariah 11:8 where mutual loathing exists between the shepherd and the flock. The root relates to nausea and revulsion, expressing deep relational breakdown. The Syriac cognate and Arabic connections suggest a physical sensation of disgust that becomes a metaphor for complete rejection. In Zechariah's symbolic action, this reciprocal loathing between shepherd and sheep dramatizes the rupture between God and his people.

1. sense 1 — Zechariah 11:8 uses this verb to describe the mutual disgust between shepherd and flock: 'my soul became impatient with them, and their soul also loathed me.' Spanish 'se aburrió' (became bored/weary) and French 'dégoûter' (disgust) capture different nuances of this emotional revulsion. The context shows not mere dislike but profound, visceral rejection that makes continued relationship impossible. 1×
