whammy Anathema anything laid up or suspended ;
hence anything laid up in a temple or set apart as sacred .
In this sense the form of the word is _anath (
ee )
ma_ ,
once in plural used in the Greek New Testament ,
in Luke 21 :
5 ,
where it is rendered "
gifts ."
In the LXX .
the form _anathema_ is generally used as the rendering of the Hebrew word _herem_ ,
derived from a verb which means (
1 )
to consecrate or devote ;
and (
2 )
to exterminate .
Any object so devoted to the Lord could not be redeemed (
Num .
18 :
14 ;
Lev .
27 :
28 ,
29 );
and hence the idea of exterminating connected with the word .
The Hebrew verb (
haram )
is frequently used of the extermination of idolatrous nations .
It had a wide range of application .
The _anathema_ or _herem_ was a person or thing irrevocably devoted to God (
Lev .
27 :
21 ,
28 );
and "
none devoted shall be ransomed .
He shall surely be put to death " (
27 :
29 ).
The word therefore carried the idea of devoted to destruction (
Num .
21 :
2 ,
3 ;
Josh .
6 :
17 );
and hence generally it meant a thing accursed .
In Deut .
7 :
26 an idol is called a _herem_ =
_anathema_ ,
a thing accursed .
In the New Testament this word always implies execration .
In some cases an individual denounces an anathema on himself unless certain conditions are fulfilled (
Acts 23 :
12 ,
14 ,
21 ). "
To call Jesus accursed " [
anathema ] (
1 Cor .
12 :
3 )
is to pronounce him execrated or accursed .
If any one preached another gospel ,
the apostle says , "
let him be accursed " (
Gal .
1 :
8 ,
9 );
i .
e .,
let his conduct in so doing be accounted accursed .
In Rom .
9 :
3 ,
the expression "
accursed " (
anathema )
from Christ ,
i .
e .,
excluded from fellowship or alliance with Christ ,
has occasioned much difficulty .
The apostle here does not speak of his wish as a possible thing .
It is simply a vehement expression of feeling ,
showing how strong was his desire for the salvation of his people .
The anathema in 1 Cor .
16 :
22 denotes simply that they who love not the Lord are rightly objects of loathing and execration to all holy beings ;
they are guilty of a crime that merits the severest condemnation ;
they are exposed to the just sentence of "
everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord ."
