Anathema:
which literally means a thing suspended, is the equivalent of the Hebrew word signifying a thing or person devoted. Any object so devoted to Jehovah was irredeemable. If an inanimate object, it was to be given to the priests (Numbers 18:14) if a living creature or even a man, it was to be slain (Leviticus 27:28-29). The word anathema frequently occurs in St. Paul's writings, and is generally translated accused. An examination of the passages in which it occurs shows that it had acquired a more general sense as expressive either of strong feeling (Romans 9:3) or of dislike and condemnation (1 Corinthians 12:3; 16:22; Galatians 1:9).
