Réponse rapide traduite avec l'aide de l'IA et en cours de révision. L'explication complète est affichée en anglais.
Bagad describes treachery — covenant-breaking, betrayal, two-faced dealing. The prophets level it at Israel’s idolatry and at Judah’s injustices.
Against that grim backdrop, God’s own emet (truth/faithfulness) shines. Malachi rebukes treachery in marriage and worship; God responds with covenant love that does not turn treacherous.
Definition: to cover (with a garment); figuratively, to act covertly; by implication, to pillage
KJV usage: deal deceitfully (treacherously, unfaithfully), offend, transgress(-or), (depart), treacherous (dealer, -ly, man), unfaithful(-ly, man), [idiom] very.
