Definition: The word "anientise" is not found in the Bible, but its origin has been debated among scholars. The term most commonly associated with it is an ancient Greek form of the Old Testament term for a person who was a child at the time of his father's death or burial, often implying he had not yet reached adulthood when his father died. The meaning varies depending on context: in some instances, it can refer to someone who was only about 2 years old or younger during the mourning period. In other cases, it is used metaphorically for someone who was a child of age but no longer exists due to the death of their parent or sibling. It's important to note that in the Old Testament, a person who has not yet reached adulthood is often called a "zek."
