ΛΥΧΝΟΝΕΚΑΣΤΟΣ, λυχνονεκαστος

LYCHNONEKASTOS, lychnonekastos

Sounds Like: lookh-NON-eh-KAS-tos

Translations: each lamp, every lamp

From the root: ΛΥΧΝΟΣ, ΕΚΑΣΤΟΣ

Part of Speech: Adjective

Explanation: This is a compound word formed from 'λύχνος' (lamp, light) and 'ἕκαστος' (each, every). It describes something related to 'each lamp' or 'every lamp'. It would be used to specify that an action or quality applies individually to every lamp or light source. This word is not commonly found in standard Koine Greek lexicons and appears to be a rare or possibly unique compound, perhaps coined for a specific context.

Inflection: Singular, Nominative, Masculine

Unknown: Yes
