FEAR, v.t. L. vereor.To feel a painful apprehension of some impending evil; to be afraid of; to consider or expect with emotions of alarm or solicitude. We fear the approach of an enemy or of a storm. We have reason to fear the punishment of our sins.I will fear no evil, for thou art with me. Ps. 23.To reverence; to have a reverential awe; to venerate.This do, and live: for I fear God. Gen. 42.To affright; to terrify; to drive away or prevent approach by fear, or by a scarecrow. This seems to be the primary meaning, but now obsolete.We must not make a scarecrow of the law, setting it up to fear the birds of prey.
FEAR, v.i. To be in apprehension of evil; to be afraid; to feel anxiety on account of some expected evil.But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtility, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 2Cor. 11.Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. Gen. 15.
neither It refers to individual things or persons; as, which road shall I take? Neither, take neither road. The upright judge inclines to neither party. It is used as a substitute; as, the upright judge inclines to neither of the parties.He neither loves Nor either cares for him.It refers to a sentence; as, ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it. That is, ye shall not eat, not either or other shall ye touch it; ye shall not eat, nor shall ye do the other thing here mentioned, that is, touch it. Genesis 3.Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king; that is, fight not, either with small or great. 1 Kings 22.Neither, in the first part of a negative sentence, is followed by nor, in the subsequent part. It is neither the one nor the other. But or would be most proper, for the negative in neither, applies to both parts of the sentence. It is often used in the last member of a negative sentence instead of nor, as in the passage above cited. Ye shall not eat it , neither shall ye touch it. Here neither is improperly used for nor, for not in the first clause refers only to that clause, and the second negative refers only to the second clause. Ye shall not eat it, nor shall ye touch it. In the sentences above, neither is considered to be a conjunction or connecting word, though in fact it is a pronoun or representative of a clause of a sentence.
Neither primarily refers to two; not either of two. But by usage it is applicable to any number, referring to individuals separately considered. Five or ten persons being charged with a misdemeanor or riot, each may say, neither of us was present.Neither sometimes closes a sentence in a peculiar manner, thus, men come not to the knowledge of ideas thought to be innate, till they come to the use of reason; not then neither. That is not either when they come to the use of reason, or before. Formerly, in English, as in Greek and French, two negatives were used for one negation. But in such phrases as that above, good speakers now use either; nor then either.
Although the word wickedness appears 119 times in the 1611 King James Bible, it is a term rarely heard today, and appears only 61 times in the English Standard Version, published in 2001. The ESV simply makes use of synonyms in several places.
The use of "wicked" to describe fairy tale witches has devalued its seriousness, but in the Bible, the term was a scathing accusation. In fact, being wicked sometimes brought God’s curse upon people.
When Wickedness Brought Death
After the Fall of Man in the Garden of Eden, it did not take long for sin and wickedness to spread over the entire earth. Centuries before the Ten Commandments, humanity invented ways to offend God:And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (Genesis 6:5, KJV)
Not only had people turned evil, but their nature was evil all the time. God was so grieved at the situation he decided to wipe out all living things on the planet — with eight exceptions — Noah and his family. Scripture calls Noah blameless and says he walked with God.
