How many times is the word hate found in the Bible?

Answer 1

Approximately 90 times (my electronic search came up with 73, but it only counts the word once even if it appears more than once in a verse, and my manual count was 87). Double that plus twenty or so if you also want other forms of the word (hated, hating, etc.) Incidentally, "love" shows up almost three times as often.

Answer 2

The word "hate" appears over 80 times in The Bible, depending on the translation. In some instances, it refers to strong disapproval or rejection rather than intense animosity. The context in which the word is used is important for understanding its meaning.
