Definition: Anthemia is a Greek term meaning "bitterness" or "stinginess." It's typically used as an adjective to describe something that has a strong taste, such as bitterness from food or alcohol. In context, it refers to unpleasant feelings or emotions like hunger and thirst. An Anthemia occurs in the Bible because it's a specific type of bitterness that the Hebrews experienced after entering Egypt (Exodus 12:7-9).
