Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent to ἐνοικέω, similar concepts can be found in the Old Testament, such as the Hebrew verb שָׁכַן (shakan, Strong's 7931), which means "to dwell" or "to abide," often used to describe God's presence among His people, as in the Shekinah glory. Another related term is יָשַׁב (yashab, Strong's 3427), meaning "to sit" or "to dwell," used in various contexts to denote habitation or residence. Usage: The verb ἐνοικέω is used in the New Testament to describe the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit or other spiritual entities within a person. It conveys the idea of a permanent or abiding presence. Context: The term ἐνοικέω appears in several key passages in the New Testament, primarily in the Pauline epistles, where it is used to describe the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in believers. This indwelling is a fundamental aspect of the Christian experience, signifying the transformative and sanctifying presence of God within the individual.
