Lexicon (Not Used): (Not Used) (Not Used)Part of Speech: Transliteration: (Not Used) (Not Used)Definition: (Not Used) Meaning: Not Used Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word λέων (leon), meaning "lion."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for the name Leontios, the Hebrew word for lion is אַרְיֵה (aryeh), Strong's Hebrew Number 738. This term is used throughout the Old Testament to describe the animal itself and metaphorically to convey strength and courage, similar to the connotations of the Greek λέων. Usage: The name Leontios does not appear in the canonical texts of the New Testament. It is a name that might have been used in the broader Hellenistic world, reflecting the cultural influence of Greek language and names during the time of the early church. Context: The name Leontios, while not found in the New Testament, reflects the cultural milieu of the Greco-Roman world in which the early Christian church was established. Names derived from animals, particularly those symbolizing strength and courage, were common in Greek culture. The lion, as a symbol, is often associated with power and majesty, qualities that were admired and sought after in personal names.
