be loathsome, repulsive, offensive
This is a separate root from the common חָנַן (be gracious), instead meaning 'be loathsome' or 'emit a foul odor.' The etymology connects to Aramaic and Arabic words for rancidness and foul smell. Job 19:17 provides the sole biblical occurrence, where Job laments that his breath is loathsome to his own children. The emotional weight of this complaint—rejected even by those closest to him—adds to the pathos of Job's suffering.

1. sense 1 — In Job 19:17, Job says 'I am loathsome to the sons of my womb,' meaning his own offspring find him repulsive. The context emphasizes social alienation: his breath is strange to his wife, and he is loathsome to his own children. Multilingual glosses capture this disgust: English 'I-am-loathsome,' Spanish 'soy-repugnante.' The parallel with זָרָה (strange, repulsive) in the verse reinforces the sense of being physically offensive or repugnant. 1×
