Strong's Lexicon aition: Cause, reason, responsibility Original Word: αἴτιον Word Origin: Derived from αἴτιος (aitios), meaning "cause" or "responsible." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "aition," the concept of cause or reason can be related to Hebrew words like סִבָּה (sibbâh, Strong's 5437) meaning "cause" or "reason." Usage: In the New Testament, "aition" is used to denote the cause or reason for something. It often implies a sense of responsibility or accountability for an action or event. The term can be used in both a positive and negative context, depending on the situation described. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, understanding the "cause" or "reason" behind events was crucial for both philosophical inquiry and practical decision-making. The concept of causality was significant in Greek philosophy, influencing early Christian thought. In the biblical context, identifying the "aition" of an event often relates to understanding God's will or human responsibility. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originneut. of aitios, q.v.
