The Key Word — עָנֹג, ve.ha.'a.nu.Gahgenerated
The word עָנֹג (anog) describes someone or something as dainty or delicate, requiring careful handling. It conveys a sense of luxury and beauty, often associated with femininity. The parsing indicates that it is an adjective, which means it modifies a noun, in this case, the woman being described.
This word carries connotations of fragility, suggesting that the woman is not only physically delicate but also emotionally sensitive. The lexicons emphasize its use in contexts that highlight gentleness and softness, making it a fitting descriptor for the woman in this verse.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse consists of one main clause and several noun phrases, with the finite verb תֵּרַ֤ע (it will be evil) governing the actions described. The structure emphasizes the contrast between the woman's gentle nature and the harshness of her feelings towards her loved ones.
The Hebrew word order places the description of the woman at the beginning, highlighting her gentleness before revealing the shocking nature of her actions, creating a stark contrast.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, the word used for עָנֹג is τρυφερὰ (trupera), which also conveys delicateness but may carry additional connotations of luxury. This choice shows a slight widening of the term, emphasizing not just fragility but also a sense of high status.
The translation reflects the Greek understanding of delicacy, which may suggest an interpretation that aligns with the cultural context of the Hellenistic audience.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Deuteronomy 28:56 describes a woman who is so gentle and refined that she cannot bring herself to set her foot on the ground. In a time of great distress, she will begrudge her husband and her children, showing how dire the circumstances will become.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
This indicates her extreme delicacy and perhaps her sheltered life, contrasting with the harsh reality she will face.
The verse illustrates a breakdown of compassion and familial bonds under extreme duress, highlighting the severity of the curses.
Her gentleness serves to emphasize the tragedy of her actions, as someone who is expected to care deeply will instead feel resentment.
This verse is part of a larger warning about the consequences of disobedience to God, illustrating the extreme hardships that will befall the Israelites.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- What does this verse reveal about the impact of extreme circumstances on human relationships?
- How can we understand the contrast between gentleness and harshness in our own lives?

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text is supported by the Septuagint, which matches 17 out of 19 words. However, the Samaritan Pentateuch differs slightly with one word: it uses הציגה (set) instead of the Masoretic הַצֵּ֣ג.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.

This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man.

Light; the sun, (Gen. 41:45, 50), the great seat of sun-worship, called also Bethshemesh (Jer. 43:13) and Aven (Ezek. 30:17), stood on the east bank of the Nile, a few miles north of Memphis, and near Cairo, in the north-east. The Vulgate and the LXX. Versions have “Heliopolis” (“city of the sun”) instead of On in Genesis and of Aven in Ezekiel. The “city of destruction” Isaiah speaks of (19:18, marg. “of Heres;” Heb. ‘Ir-ha-heres, which some MSS. read Ir-ha-heres, i.e., “city of the sun”) may be the name given to On, the prophecy being that the time will come when that city which was known as the “city of the sun-god” shall become the “city of destruction” of the sun-god, i.e., when idolatry shall cease, and the worship…

It was situated on the east side of the Pelusiac branch of the Nile, just below the point of the Delta, and about twenty miles northeast of Memphis. The chief object of worship at Heliopolis was the sun, whose temple, described by Strabo, is now only represented by the single beautiful obelisk, of red granite so feet 2 inches high above the pedestal which has stood for more than 4000 years, having been erected by Usirtesen, the second king of the twelfth dynasty. Heliopolis was anciently famous for its learning, and Eudoxus and Plato studied under its priests. The first mention of this place in the Bible is in the history of Joseph, to whom we read Pharaoh gave "to wife Asenath the daughter…

In the Bible it is represented as moral and physical. We choose to discuss the subject under these heads. Many of the evils that come upon men have not been intended by those who suffer for them. Disease, individual and national calamity, drought, scarcity of food, may not always be charged to the account of intentional wrong. Many times the innocent suffer with, and even for, the guilty. In such cases, only physical evil is apparent. Even when the suffering has been occasioned by sin or dereliction of duty, whether the wrong is active or passive, many, perhaps the majority of those who are injured, are not accountable in any way for the ills which come upon them. Neither is God the author of moral evil. "God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempteth no man" (Jas 1:13).

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
