Part of Speech: Noun, Numeral

Sounds like: OHX

Translations: Oxe, Ox, a branch, a shoot, a sprout, a tendril, 860

Notes: This word, ΩΞʼ, can have two primary interpretations in Koine Greek. The first is as a proper noun, 'Oxe' or 'Ox', likely referring to a person's name, as seen in genealogical lists. The second interpretation arises from the final character, which is a keraia, indicating a numerical value. In this case, Ω represents 800 and Ξ represents 60, making the total value 860. Additionally, the word 'ῥώξ' (rhōx), which would appear as ΡΩΞ in uncial script, means 'a branch, a shoot, a sprout, or a tendril'. Given the example usage, particularly the first one mentioning 'branch in the cluster', it is highly probable that ΩΞʼ is a misspelling or variant of ΡΩΞʼ (rhōx), or a scribal error. The second example usage clearly points to a proper name 'Oxe'. Therefore, it could be a proper noun, a numeral, or a variant/misspelling of 'branch'.

Inflection: Singular, Nominative, Masculine or Feminine (for the proper noun/branch meaning); Does not inflect (for the numeral meaning)

Synonyms: ΚΛΑΔΟϹ, ΒΛΑϹΤΟϹ, ΦΥΤΟΝ

Sounds like: sah-mah-mee-EEL

Translations: Samamiel

Notes: Samamiel is a proper noun, likely referring to an angelic or demonic figure in apocryphal or magical texts.

Given its appearance in magical papyri, it is often invoked in spells or incantations.

Inflection: Does not inflect

Etymology: The name Samamiel is of Hebrew origin, combining 'Samam' (possibly related to 'poison' or 'heaven/sky') with 'El' (God). It is a common structure for angelic names found in Jewish mystical and apocryphal literature.

G2474

Part of Speech: Proper Noun

Sounds like: iss-rah-EL

Translations: Israel

Notes: This word refers to Israel, which can denote either the patriarch Jacob (who was renamed Israel), the nation descended from him, or the land occupied by the Israelites. The apostrophe-like character at the end (keraia) indicates that this is a numerical value, specifically the number 1000 + 200 + 6 + 100 + 1 + 8 + 30 = 1365. However, in ancient Greek texts, it is far more common for proper nouns to appear without diacritics, and the keraia is often used to mark numbers. Given the context of ancient Greek texts, it is overwhelmingly likely that this refers to the proper noun 'Israel' rather than a number. The keraia might be a scribal mark or a misinterpretation of a breathing mark in some contexts, but its primary function when attached to a word like this is to denote a number. Therefore, while it could theoretically be interpreted as the number 1365, its most probable meaning in a biblical or historical context is the proper noun 'Israel'.

Inflection: Does not inflect (as a proper noun)

Etymology: The name 'Israel' is of Hebrew origin, meaning 'God strives' or 'he strives with God'. It was given to Jacob after he wrestled with an angel or God.
