Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek term ἁμαρτωλός corresponds to several Hebrew terms that convey the concept of sinfulness or being a sinner. These include: Usage: The word ἁμαρτωλός is used in the New Testament to describe individuals who are morally or spiritually flawed, often in contrast to those who are righteous or seeking righteousness. It is frequently used in the context of Jesus' ministry, highlighting His association with sinners and His mission to call them to repentance. Context: The term ἁμαρτωλός appears numerous times in the New Testament, often in the Gospels and the Pauline Epistles. It is used to describe individuals who are outside the covenant community or who live in a manner contrary to God's laws. In the Gospels, Jesus is frequently depicted as associating with ἁμαρτωλοί (sinners), which was a point of contention with the Pharisees and religious leaders of His time. For example, in Matthew 9:13, Jesus states, "But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners." This highlights the redemptive purpose of Jesus' mission, emphasizing grace and forgiveness over judgment.
