Strong's Lexicon emos: My, mine Original Word: ἐμός Word Origin: Derived from the Greek root ἐγώ (egō), meaning "I" or "me." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent of "emos" would be possessive pronouns like "שֶׁלִּי" (sheli), meaning "my" or "mine," though there is no direct one-to-one correspondence in Strong's Hebrew Dictionary. Usage: The Greek word "emos" is a possessive pronoun used to denote ownership or association with the speaker. It is often translated as "my" or "mine" in English. In the New Testament, "emos" is used to express personal possession or a close relationship, emphasizing the speaker's connection to the noun it modifies. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, the use of possessive pronouns like "emos" reflects the personal and relational nature of the language. The Greek culture, much like the Hebrew culture, placed significant emphasis on personal relationships and ownership, which is evident in the frequent use of possessive pronouns. The New Testament writers used "emos" to convey the personal nature of faith, discipleship, and the relationship between Jesus and His followers.
