Name of God’s Son

ΤΕΦΑΡΙΣΑΙΟΣ, τεφαρισαιος

TEPHARISAIOS, tepharisaios

Sounds Like: fah-ree-SAI-os

Translations: Pharisee, a Pharisee

From the root: ΦΑΡΙΣΑΙΟΣ

Part of Speech: Noun

Explanation: This word appears to be a misspelling or a garbled form of 'ΦΑΡΙΣΑΙΟΣ' (Pharisaios), which refers to a member of an ancient Jewish sect, known for their strict adherence to traditional and written law. The prefix 'ΤΕ' is not typically found as part of this word. It is possible that 'ΤΕ' was mistakenly added, or it could be a scribal error. If 'ΤΕ' were intended as the enclitic particle 'τε' (meaning 'and'), it would typically follow a word, not precede it in this manner, unless it's a very unusual compound or a highly corrupted text. Therefore, the most probable meaning is 'Pharisee'.

Inflection: Singular, Nominative, Masculine

Strong’s number: G5330 (Lookup on BibleHub)
