Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From μετά (meta, meaning "after" or "beyond") and νοέω (noeō, meaning "to think" or "to perceive").Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of repentance in the Old Testament is often associated with the Hebrew word שׁוּב (shub, Strong's 7725), which means "to turn back" or "to return." Another related term is נָחַם (nacham, Strong's 5162), which can mean "to be sorry" or "to comfort," often used in the context of relenting or changing one's mind. These terms convey a similar idea of turning away from sin and returning to God, paralleling the New Testament concept of μετανοέω. Usage: The verb μετανοέω is used in the New Testament to denote a transformative change of heart and mind, often in the context of turning away from sin and turning towards God. It is a call to repentance and a fundamental aspect of the Christian message. Context: The term μετανοέω is central to the New Testament's message of repentance and conversion. It appears prominently in the preaching of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ, emphasizing the necessity of a radical reorientation of one's life towards God. In Matthew 3:2, John the Baptist declares, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." Similarly, Jesus begins His ministry with the call to repentance in Matthew 4:17: "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near."
