Sounds Like: oo-ra-NOO

Translations: of heaven, of the heavens, heaven, a heaven

From the root: ΟΥΡΑΝΟΣ

Part of Speech: Noun

Explanation: This word is a scribal abbreviation, likely for ΟΥΡΑΝΟΥ (ouranou), meaning 'of heaven' or 'of the heavens'. The final sigma (Σ) is unusual for the genitive form and might indicate a scribal error or a highly abbreviated form of the nominative ΟΥΡΑΝΟΣ (ouranos), meaning 'heaven' or 'a heaven'. In general usage, it refers to the sky, the celestial dwelling place of God, or the spiritual realm. It is often used in the plural to refer to the heavens.

Inflection: Singular, Genitive (most likely) or Nominative (less likely due to abbreviation pattern), Masculine

Strong’s number: G3772 (Lookup on BibleHub)
