Strong's Lexicon piotés: Richness, abundance, fertility Original Word: πιότης Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word "πίων" (pion), meaning "fat" or "rich." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of richness or abundance is "שֶׁפַע" (shefa, Strong's Hebrew 7647), which also conveys the idea of abundance or plenty. Usage: The term "piotés" is used to convey the idea of richness or abundance, often in a metaphorical sense. It can refer to the richness of God's grace, the abundance of spiritual blessings, or the fertility of the land. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the fullness and richness of God's provision and blessings. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greek world, the concept of richness or abundance was often associated with agricultural fertility and prosperity. The land's ability to produce bountiful harvests was seen as a sign of divine favor. In the Jewish context, the richness of the Promised Land was a recurring theme, symbolizing God's covenant blessings. The New Testament writers adapted this imagery to describe the spiritual abundance found in Christ. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originfrom pión (fat) Definition fatness NASB Translation rich (1).
