(Herodotus) Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek words ἑπτά (hepta, meaning "seven") and χίλιοι (chilioi, meaning "thousand").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of a remnant or a specific number preserved by God can be related to several Hebrew terms, though there is no direct numerical equivalent to ἑπτακισχίλιοι. However, the idea of a remnant is often associated with the Hebrew word שְׁאָר (she'ar, Strong's Hebrew 7611), which means "remnant" or "rest." Additionally, the number seven (שֶׁבַע, sheva, Strong's Hebrew 7651) and thousand (אֶלֶף, eleph, Strong's Hebrew 505) are relevant in understanding the numerical components of ἑπτακισχίλιοι. These terms collectively contribute to the biblical theme of divine preservation and the faithful remnant. Usage: The term ἑπτακισχίλιοι is used in the New Testament to denote a specific number, particularly in the context of a remnant or a group preserved by God. Context: The Greek term ἑπτακισχίλιοι appears in the New Testament in the context of divine preservation and the faithful remnant. It is notably found in Romans 11:4, where the Apostle Paul references the account of Elijah from the Old Testament. In this passage, Paul cites God's assurance to Elijah that He has preserved a remnant of seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal. This reference underscores the theme of God's faithfulness in maintaining a remnant of believers even in times of widespread apostasy. The use of ἑπτακισχίλιοι in this context highlights the precision and intentionality of God's preservation of His people. The number seven thousand symbolizes completeness and divine perfection, reflecting the idea that God's plans are meticulously fulfilled.
