Berean Strong's Lexicon esóteros: Inner, interior Original Word: ἐσώτερος Word Origin: Comparative form of the Greek word ἔσω (esō), meaning "inside" or "within." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often relates to terms like קֹדֶשׁ (qodesh), meaning "holy" or "sanctuary," which also denotes an inner, sacred space. Usage: The term "esóteros" is used to describe something that is more inward or interior. In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to the inner parts of a structure or a more profound, internal aspect of a person or place. It emphasizes a deeper, more concealed part as opposed to the outer or visible. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of inner versus outer was significant in both physical and philosophical contexts. Buildings often had inner rooms or sanctuaries that were considered more sacred or private. Philosophically, the inner self was often seen as the true essence of a person, a concept that aligns with biblical teachings on the heart and spirit.
