Sounds like: ee-oh-MATH

Translations: Iomath, Eiomath

Notes: This is a proper noun, likely referring to a person's name. The final apostrophe (coronis) indicates an elision, meaning a vowel has been dropped. In this case, it's likely an elision of the final vowel of ΕΙΩΜΑΘ before another word, or it could represent a genitive form where the final vowel was elided. It is the Greek transliteration of a Hebrew name, possibly 'Jemath' or 'Jemuel'.

Inflection: Singular, Nominative or Genitive (with elision)

The final apostrophe-like character (ʼ) typically indicates either an elision (where a final vowel has been dropped from a word like "ΑΤΟΥΘΕ" or "ΑΤΟΥΘΙ") or a keraia (a numerical marker). However, even without the elision, "ΑΤΟΥΘ" does not correspond to any known Greek word. It is highly probable that this is a misspelling, a scribal error, or a garbled text. Without further context or correction, its meaning remains entirely unknown.

Part of Speech: Numeral, Interjection, Proper Noun

Sounds like: ee-AH

Translations: 10, ten, Oh!, Ah!, Yah, Jah

Notes: This word has multiple possible meanings depending on context. It can represent the numeral 10 (iota being the tenth letter of the Greek alphabet). It can also be an interjection, similar to 'Oh!' or 'Ah!' in English, expressing surprise, pain, or other emotions. Furthermore, it can be a shortened form of 'Yahweh' or 'Jehovah', referring to God, often found in names like 'Hallelujah'.

Inflection: Does not inflect (as a numeral or interjection). As a proper noun, it is indeclinable.

Etymology: The numeral 'ΙΑ' derives from the use of the Greek letter iota (ι) to represent the number 10 in the Greek numeral system. As an interjection, its origin is onomatopoeic. As a proper noun, it is a shortened form of the Hebrew name for God, YHWH.

Part of Speech: Proper Noun

Sounds like: FAH-ahv-MOH-ahv

Translations: Phaabmoab

Notes: This word appears to be a proper noun, likely a personal name. However, the spelling "ΦΑΑΒΜΩΑΒ" is highly unusual for Koine Greek and does not correspond to any known Greek word or a standard transliteration of a Hebrew name. It is very probable that this is a misspelling, a garbled text, or a transcription error of another name, possibly "Pahath-Moab" (Strong's H6305) from the Old Testament, which is often transliterated differently into Greek. Given the context "son of Phaabmoab," it functions as a genitive proper noun indicating parentage.

Inflection: Singular, Genitive, Masculine

Etymology: It's not clear what the etymology of this specific spelling is, as it appears to be a garbled or misspelled form. If it is intended to represent the Hebrew name "Pahath-Moab" (פַּחַת מוֹאָב), its etymology would be "governor of Moab" or "pit of Moab," combining a term for a governor/pit with the name of the region Moab.

Part of Speech: Proper Noun

Translations: Nathoureim

Notes: This word is a proper noun, likely a transliteration of a Hebrew name or place name.

Part of Speech: Pronoun, Adjective

Sounds like: ow-TOS

Translations: he, she, it, they, himself, herself, itself, themselves, same, very, a same, the same

Notes: This word functions as both a pronoun and an adjective. As a pronoun, it can mean 'he, she, it' (third person personal pronoun) or be used intensively to mean 'himself, herself, itself, themselves'. When used as an adjective, it means 'the same' or 'the very'. Its meaning depends on its position and context within a sentence. For example, when used attributively with an article (e.g., ὁ αὐτὸς), it means 'the same'. When used predicatively or without an article, it often has an intensive meaning ('he himself').

Inflection: Masculine, Feminine, or Neuter; Singular or Plural; Nominative, Genitive, Dative, or Accusative

Part of Speech: Definite Article, Relative Pronoun, Interjection, Prefix, Numeral

Sounds like: AI

Translations: the, who, which, alas, oh, 11

Notes: The word 'ΑΙ' can function in several ways in Koine Greek. Most commonly, it is the feminine nominative plural form of the definite article, meaning 'the' (referring to multiple feminine nouns). It can also be the feminine nominative plural form of the relative pronoun, meaning 'who' or 'which'. Less frequently, it can be an interjection expressing sorrow or pain, similar to 'alas' or 'oh'. It can also appear as a prefix in compound words. Additionally, 'ΑΙ' can represent the number 11 when used as a numerical symbol (alpha-iota). It is also possible for 'ΑΙ' to be an elision or contraction of other words, such as 'ἀεί' (always) or 'ἄγε' (come on!), though this is less common in the New Testament.

Inflection: Feminine, Nominative, Plural (for article and pronoun); Does not inflect (for interjection, prefix, and numeral)

Etymology: The origin of 'ΑΙ' as a definite article and relative pronoun is from Proto-Indo-European. Its use as an interjection is onomatopoeic.

Translations: of the

Inflection: Singular, Genitive, Feminine

Sometimes it can imply motion into a place, similar to 'into' or 'to,' especially when the context suggests movement towards a location where something then resides.

Inflection: Does not inflect

Etymology: From Proto-Indo-European *en, meaning 'in' or 'into'. It is cognate with English 'in'.

It was a town or district mentioned in the Old Testament, known for its strategic location and possibly for its vineyards. The final apostrophe (keraia) indicates that the word is being used as a numeral, but in this context, it is clearly a place name, so the keraia likely serves as a scribal mark or an abbreviation for the full form, or it could be a misinterpretation of a final nu or mu.

Inflection: Singular, Does not inflect

Etymology: The name Beth-haccerem is of Hebrew origin, meaning 'house of the vineyard'. It is a compound word formed from 'Beth' (house) and 'Kerem' (vineyard).

Translations: of the hindquarters, of the buttocks, of the rump

Notes: This word appears to be a genitive plural form, likely referring to the hindquarters or buttocks.

Notes: This is a proper noun, likely a transliteration of a Hebrew or Aramaic place name, meaning 'House of the Gabbarim' or 'House of the Mighty Ones/Warriors'.

Part of Speech: Numeral

Sounds like: bah-AH-soo-th

Translations: 271

Notes: This word is a Greek numeral, indicated by the keraia (ʼ) at the end. In the Greek numeral system, letters are assigned numerical values. Β (Beta) represents 2, Α (Alpha) represents 1, Σ (Sigma) represents 200, Ο (Omicron) represents 70, and Υ (Upsilon) represents 400. However, when letters are used as numerals, their order matters for place value. The sequence ΒΑΑΣΟΥΘʼ would typically be interpreted by summing the values of its constituent letters. In this case, Β (2) + Α (1) + Α (1) + Σ (200) + Ο (70) + Υ (400) + Θ (9) would sum to 683. However, it's more likely that this is a misspelling or a very unusual representation of a number, as Greek numerals usually follow a more structured pattern for larger numbers (e.g., hundreds, tens, units). Given the structure, it's possible it's intended to represent 271, where Β=2, Α=1, and ΣΟΥΘ is a garbled or non-standard representation of 70. It is highly probable that this is a garbled or misspelled word, or a very unusual way of writing a number, as it does not conform to standard Greek numeral conventions for such a sequence of letters.

Translations: Henadad

Notes: This word is a proper noun, likely a transliteration of a Hebrew name. It appears to be a genitive form, indicating possession or origin, meaning 'of Henadad'. The final apostrophe is a keraia, a Greek numeral sign, but in this context, it is part of the name itself, or possibly an abbreviation marker, rather than indicating a numerical value. It refers to a person named Henadad.

Inflection: Singular, Genitive, Masculine

Etymology: This is a transliteration of the Hebrew name חֵינָדָד (Cheynadad), meaning 'favor of Hadad' or 'grace of Hadad'. Hadad was a Syrian storm god.
