Explanation: This word is the dative singular form of the noun 'μῦθος' (mythos), meaning a myth, fable, story, or tale. It is used to indicate the indirect object of a verb, answering the question 'to what?' or 'for what?'. For example, it might be used in a phrase like 'he told a story to the myth' (meaning, 'he told a story that was a myth'). In Koine Greek, 'μῦθος' often refers to a fictitious narrative, a legend, or a false teaching, particularly in the New Testament where it contrasts with truth.
