MARANATHA
The short phrase,
“anathema
maranatha”
was a negative pronouncement, almost a curse, upon anyone that did not love
Yahusha.
A newer meaning for “maranatha” crept into the “church” several hundred years ago. It essentially is Aramaic (Maran – atha), that is, "master comes".
Taken together, the phrase actually means “forbidden; Master comes!”
Those who declare they do not love Yahusha are
“off-limits” to us, so we say “anathema maranatha” pertaining to any close
relationships with them, especially Scripture studies.

Note the Greek text says ANATHEMA MARANATHA - these must be taken together to properly understand the meaning of the sentence.
The word
“anathema” is equivalent to the Hebrew word “HEREM”, and means off-limits, or
forbidden. This word is used for the “harem” of a king, a group of
concubines guarded by a cohort of eunuchs. Maranatha is the component of the
phrase that means judgment is coming to execute vengeance. “Maranatha” in
this case should not be isolated from the word used before it, “anathema”, to be
properly understood in context.
