Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for κοινωνός, the concept of partnership and fellowship can be related to Hebrew terms such as חָבֵר (chaver, Strong's 2270), meaning "companion" or "friend," and שׁוּתָף (shutaf), meaning "partner" or "associate," though these are not direct Strong's entries. The idea of communal sharing and partnership is a theme present in both the Old and New Testaments, reflecting the covenantal relationships among God's people. Usage: The term κοινωνός is used in the New Testament to describe individuals who share in fellowship, partnership, or common cause, often in the context of spiritual or communal relationships. Context: The Greek term κοινωνός appears in several New Testament passages, emphasizing the concept of partnership and shared experience. It is often used to describe the intimate fellowship among believers and their shared participation in the life and mission of the church.
