Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Hebrew 8066: שְׁמִינִי (shemini) • This Hebrew term is the ordinal number for "eighth" and is used in similar contexts in the Old Testament, such as in the description of the eighth day or the eighth son. It often appears in ceremonial or genealogical contexts, reflecting the continuity of divine order and covenant.

In summary, ὄγδοος is a term that signifies the ordinal position of "eighth" and is used in the New Testament to convey themes of continuity, new beginnings, and eschatological fulfillment. Its usage underscores the importance of divine order and the unfolding of God's plan throughout biblical history.

Usage: The word ὄγδοος is used in the New Testament to denote the ordinal position of "eighth." It appears in contexts where the sequence or order is significant, often related to time or lineage.

Context: The Greek term ὄγδοος is an ordinal number used to indicate the position of "eighth" in a sequence. In the New Testament, it is used to describe events or individuals that are eighth in order. The concept of the "eighth" often carries symbolic significance in biblical literature, representing new beginnings or a new order, as the number eight follows the completion of a cycle of seven, which is often associated with completeness or perfection.

In the New Testament, ὄγδοος is notably used in the context of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, where it highlights the continuation of a divine promise through generations. The term also appears in eschatological contexts, where it may symbolize a new era or phase in God's redemptive plan.

Example from the Berean Standard Bible (BSB):
• Revelation 17:11: "The beast that was, and is not, is himself an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going into destruction."

This passage uses ὄγδοος to describe the beast as an eighth king, indicating a continuation or culmination of a series of rulers, with eschatological implications.
