1. violent one, robber — A violent, lawless person who uses force to oppress, rob, or destroy; covers the semantic range from 'robber' to 'violent oppressor' to 'ravenous beast-like aggressor.' Used of the wicked in Psalm 17:4 (ways of the violent), Isaiah 35:9 (no ravenous beast), Ezekiel 7:22 (robbers desecrating the temple), Ezekiel 18:10 (a violent son who sheds blood), Daniel 11:14 (violent men of the people), and Jeremiah 7:11 (den of robbers). Glosses converge across languages: Arabic الظَّالِمِ/لُصُوصٍ 'oppressor/thieves,' Korean 폭력적인 자/강도들 'violent person/robbers,' Hindi उपद्रवी/डाकू 'troublemaker/robber,' Spanish violento/ladrones 'violent/thieves,' French brigand 'brigand.' All forms (singular, plural, construct) express a single core meaning of violent lawlessness. 6×
