Rabbinic Hebrew
In Rabbinic sources, זָדוֹן is used to describe a premeditated sin (in contrast to a שְׁגָגָה). Rabbinic Hebrew also introduced the word מֵזִיד as a term for intentional sinning (in contrast to שׁוֹגֵג). This usage likely influenced many medieval commentators in their understanding of the root זדון.
