Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct equivalent in Hebrew for the Greek reciprocal pronoun ἀλλήλων. However, the concept of mutual responsibility and community can be found in various Hebrew terms and expressions related to love, fellowship, and communal living, such as רֵעַ (rea, Strong's H7453) meaning "friend" or "companion," which often implies mutual relationship.

Usage: The word ἀλλήλων appears frequently in the New Testament, emphasizing the mutual responsibilities and relationships among believers. It is often used in exhortations to love, serve, and support one another within the Christian community.

Context: The Greek term ἀλλήλων is a significant word in the New Testament, underscoring the communal and relational aspects of the Christian faith. It appears approximately 100 times, primarily in the epistles, where it serves to instruct believers on how to live in harmony and unity.

In the teachings of Jesus and the apostles, ἀλλήλων is used to convey the importance of mutual love and service. For instance, in John 13:34, Jesus commands His disciples, "A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also must love one another." This commandment highlights the reciprocal nature of Christian love, modeled after Christ's own love for His followers.

The apostle Paul frequently employs ἀλλήλων in his letters to address the conduct of believers within the church. In Romans 12:10, he writes, "Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Outdo yourselves in honoring one another." Here, Paul emphasizes the importance of mutual respect and honor among Christians.

Additionally, ἀλλήλων is used to encourage believers to bear one another's burdens (Galatians 6:2), forgive one another (Ephesians 4:32), and admonish one another (Colossians 3:16). These exhortations reflect the interconnectedness of the body of Christ and the call to live in a manner that reflects the love and grace of God.

The use of ἀλλήλων in the New Testament serves as a reminder of the communal nature of the Christian life, where believers are called to live not in isolation but in supportive and loving relationships with one another.
