These Hebrew terms similarly denote the early part of the day and are used throughout the Old Testament to signify the beginning of a new day, often associated with divine intervention or the start of significant events. The concept of morning in both Hebrew and Greek scriptures underscores themes of renewal, hope, and divine presence.

Usage: The term πρωϊνός is used in the context of describing something that occurs in the morning or is related to the early part of the day.

Context: The Greek word πρωϊνός appears in the New Testament to describe events or actions that take place in the morning. This term emphasizes the time of day, often associated with new beginnings, preparation, or the start of significant events. In the cultural and historical context of the Bible, the morning was a time for prayer, work, and important gatherings. The use of πρωϊνός can be seen in passages where the timing of an event is crucial to its understanding or where the morning setting adds to the narrative's thematic elements.

For example, in the Berean Standard Bible, πρωϊνός might be used to describe the time when Jesus rose early to pray or when the disciples gathered in the morning. The morning is often symbolic of light, newness, and revelation, contrasting with the darkness of night. This symbolism is consistent with the biblical theme of light overcoming darkness and the dawning of a new era through Christ.
