ΤΕΙΧΟΥΣΚΑΙΣΑΡΑ, τειχουσκαισαρα
TEICHOUSKAISARA, teichouskaisara
Sounds Like: TEE-khoos-KAI-sa-ra
Translations: wall, Caesar
From the root: ΤΕΙΧΟΣ, ΚΑΙΣΑΡ
Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word appears to be a compound of two separate words, likely a scribal error or a very unusual compound. The first part, ΤΕΙΧΟΥΣ (TEICHOUS), is the genitive singular form of ΤΕΙΧΟΣ (TEICHOS), meaning 'wall'. The second part, ΚΑΙΣΑΡΑ (KAISARA), is the accusative singular form of ΚΑΙΣΑΡ (KAISAR), meaning 'Caesar'. As a single word, it is not recognized in Koine Greek lexicons. It is highly probable that this is a misspelling or a garbled text, and the original intent was to have two separate words, 'ΤΕΙΧΟΥΣ' and 'ΚΑΙΣΑΡΑ', or perhaps 'ΤΕΙΧΟΥΣ' and 'ΚΑΙΣΑΡΟΣ' (genitive of Caesar) or 'ΚΑΙΣΑΡΑ' (accusative of Caesar) referring to something 'of a wall' and 'Caesar' separately. Given the context, it might refer to 'from the wall, Caesar' or 'from the wall of Caesar'.
Inflection: Genitive Singular (ΤΕΙΧΟΥΣ), Accusative Singular (ΚΑΙΣΑΡΑ)
