Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word ἄμφω (amphō), meaning "both."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of "both" or "the two" in Hebrew can be related to the word יַחַד (yachad • Strong's Hebrew 3162), which conveys the idea of togetherness or unity. Another related term is שְׁנַיִם (shenayim • Strong's Hebrew 8147), meaning "two," often used to denote a pair or couple in the Hebrew Scriptures. Usage: This word is used in the New Testament to denote two people or things that are being considered together as a pair or unit. Context: The Greek word ἀμφότεροι appears in several New Testament passages, emphasizing the unity or joint consideration of two subjects. It is often used in contexts where two individuals or groups are being addressed or described as having a shared experience or status. For example, in Ephesians 2:14, the word is used to describe the reconciliation of Jews and Gentiles: "For He Himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has torn down the dividing wall of hostility." Here, ἀμφότεροι underscores the unity brought about through Christ, breaking down barriers and creating a new, unified body of believers.
