Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 2084: ἑτερόγλωσσοςἑτερόγλωσσος, ἑτερογλωσσου, ὁ (ἕτερος and γλῶσσα), one who speaks (another i. e.) a foreign tongue (opposed to ὁμόγλωσσος): Psalm 113:1 Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from two Greek words: ἕτερος (heteros), meaning "other" or "different," and γλῶσσα (glōssa), meaning "tongue" or "language."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of speaking in different tongues or languages can be related to several Hebrew terms that describe language and speech, such as: Usage: The word ἑτερόγλωσσος appears in the New Testament in contexts that discuss the diversity of languages, particularly in relation to the gift of tongues and the spread of the Gospel to different peoples. Context: The term ἑτερόγλωσσος is notably used in the New Testament to describe the phenomenon of speaking in tongues, a spiritual gift that enabled early Christians to speak in languages they had not learned. This gift served as a sign to unbelievers and facilitated the spread of the Gospel across linguistic barriers. In 1 Corinthians 14:21, the Apostle Paul references the concept of speaking in different tongues, quoting from the Old Testament to illustrate the point that God would speak to His people through those of other tongues and lips. This passage highlights the fulfillment of prophecy and the inclusivity of the Gospel message, reaching beyond the Jewish community to encompass all nations and languages. The use of ἑτερόγλωσσος underscores the miraculous nature of this gift and its role in the early church's mission.
