Sounds Like: foo-LAX-on-TON-eh-OH-ra
Translations: of those who will guard, of those who will keep, of the temple-keeper, of the temple-warden
From the root: ΦΥΛΑΣΣΩ, ΝΕΩΡΟΣ
Part of Speech: Participle, Noun
Explanation: This appears to be a compound or a concatenation of two distinct Koine Greek words: ΦΥΛΑΞΟΝΤΩΝ (phylaxontōn) and ΝΕΩΡΑ (neōra). ΦΥΛΑΞΟΝΤΩΝ is the genitive plural masculine or neuter future active participle of the verb φυλάσσω (phylassō), meaning 'to guard' or 'to keep'. ΝΕΩΡΑ is the genitive singular of the noun νεωρός (neōros), meaning 'temple-keeper' or 'temple-warden'. The combined phrase would mean 'of those who will guard the temple-keeper' or 'of those who will keep the temple-warden'. However, it is highly probable that this is a transcription error or a garbled text, as these two words are not typically combined in this manner to form a single word.
Inflection: ΦΥΛΑΞΟΝΤΩΝ: Future Active Participle, Genitive Plural, Masculine or Neuter. ΝΕΩΡΑ: Genitive Singular, Masculine or Feminine.
