TOB, tob
Sounds Like: TOB
Translations: Tob, good, 92
From the root: ΤΟΒ
Part of Speech: Proper Noun, Numeral
Explanation: This word, 'ΤΟΒ', can have two primary interpretations in Koine Greek, given the lack of diacritics. Firstly, it is most likely a transliteration of the Hebrew proper noun 'Tob' (טוֹב), meaning 'good' or 'goodness'. This name appears in the Old Testament, referring to a region or a person. Secondly, if the word were followed by a keraia (a numerical symbol, often an apostrophe-like mark), 'ΤΟΒ'' could represent the number 92. However, without the keraia, the proper noun interpretation is more probable.
Inflection: Does not inflect (as a proper noun or numeral)
