Strong's Lexicon pantothen: From all sides, on all sides, everywhere Original Word: πάντοθεν Word Origin: Derived from πᾶς (pas, meaning "all" or "every") and a form of the word θεν (then, meaning "from" or "of"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "pantothen," the concept of being surrounded or encompassed is present in Hebrew words like סָבִיב (sabiḇ), which means "around" or "surrounding." Usage: The Greek adverb "pantothen" is used to describe something that comes from all directions or is present everywhere. It conveys a sense of totality or completeness in terms of spatial presence or influence. In the New Testament, it is used to emphasize the comprehensive nature of an action or situation. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of something being "from all sides" or "everywhere" would have been understood in both literal and metaphorical senses. It could describe physical surroundings or the pervasive influence of an idea or force. The use of "pantothen" in biblical texts reflects the comprehensive nature of God's presence and action in the world, a theme consistent with the monotheistic belief in an omnipresent and omnipotent God.
