Explanation: The word "ΛΑΜ" is not a standalone word in Koine Greek. Based on the provided examples, it appears to be a truncated or partial form of other words. In the second example, it is part of "ΛΑΜΒΑΝΟΝΤΕΣ", which comes from the verb ΛΑΜΒΑΝΩ (lambanō), meaning 'to take' or 'to receive'. In the third example, it is part of "ΛΑΜΠΡΑ", which comes from the verb ΛΑΜΠΩ (lampō), meaning 'to shine' or 'to be bright'. Therefore, "ΛΑΜ" itself is likely a misspelling, a fragment, or a very rare abbreviation of a word related to 'taking' or 'shining'. It's not clear what this word means on its own. It could be garbled or badly misspelled.
