Berean Strong's Lexicon heterós: Other, another, different Original Word: ἕτερος Word Origin: Derived from a primary word (ἕτερος) meaning "other" or "another." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of "other" or "different" in Hebrew can be found in words like אַחֵר (acher - Strong's H312), which also means "another" or "other." Usage: The Greek word "heterós" is used to denote something that is different in kind or nature. It often contrasts with "allos," which means "another of the same kind." "Heterós" implies a distinction or difference, often used to highlight diversity or contrast between two entities. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, distinctions between different kinds or classes were significant in various contexts, including philosophy, social structures, and religious practices. The use of "heterós" in the New Testament reflects this cultural understanding of difference and diversity, often emphasizing the distinctiveness of the Christian message or community compared to other beliefs or groups.
