Topical Lexicon Word Origin: The name Μνάσων is of uncertain origin, but it is a Greek name that was common in the Hellenistic period.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Hebrew entries for the Greek name Μνάσων, as it is a proper noun specific to the New Testament context and does not have a Hebrew equivalent. Usage: The name Mnason appears once in the New Testament, specifically in the Book of Acts. Context: Mnason is mentioned in Acts 21:16 as a "disciple from Cyprus" who provided hospitality to Paul and his companions during their journey to Jerusalem. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) states: "Some of the disciples from Caesarea accompanied us and brought us to the home of Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, where we were to stay." Mnason is described as an "early disciple," indicating that he was among the first converts to Christianity, possibly having been converted during the early missionary activities following Pentecost. His willingness to host Paul and his companions suggests that he was a person of some means and influence, capable of providing for a group of travelers. Mnason's role highlights the importance of hospitality in the early Christian community and the interconnectedness of believers across different regions.
