Strong's Lexicon epaurion: The next day, on the morrow Original Word: ἐπαύριον Word Origin: Derived from the Greek preposition "epi" (ἐπί, meaning "upon" or "on") and "aurion" (αὔριον, meaning "tomorrow" or "the next day"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "epaurion," the concept of "the next day" can be related to Hebrew terms like מָחָר (machar, Strong's H4279), which also means "tomorrow" or "the next day." Usage: The adverb "epaurion" is used in the New Testament to denote the day following a particular event or time. It is often translated as "the next day" or "on the morrow" and is used to indicate a sequence of events, emphasizing the passage of time from one day to the next. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, time was often measured in terms of days, with significant events being marked by their occurrence on specific days. The use of "epaurion" reflects the Jewish and Greco-Roman practice of marking time and planning events with reference to the following day. This term would have been understood by contemporary audiences as a straightforward way to indicate the progression of time.
