Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: A transliteration of the Hebrew name שִׁמְעוֹן (Shim'on), which means "he has heard."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek name Σίμων corresponds to the Hebrew name שִׁמְעוֹן (Shim'on), which is Strong's Hebrew entry 8095. This name is borne by several Old Testament figures, most notably Simeon, the second son of Jacob and Leah, and the ancestor of one of the twelve tribes of Israel.

Usage: The name Σίμων appears frequently in the New Testament, referring to multiple individuals, including prominent figures such as Simon Peter, one of Jesus' twelve apostles, and Simon the Zealot, another apostle. It is also used for Simon the Pharisee, Simon of Cyrene, and Simon the sorcerer, among others.

Context: • Simon Peter: Also known as Cephas, Simon Peter is one of the most prominent apostles of Jesus Christ. He is often depicted as a leader among the disciples and is known for his strong faith and occasional impulsiveness. Jesus famously said to him, "And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it" (Matthew 16:18, BSB). Simon Peter is also known for denying Jesus three times before the crucifixion, a moment of weakness followed by his restoration and significant role in the early church.

• Simon the Zealot: One of the twelve apostles, Simon the Zealot is mentioned in the lists of apostles but little else is known about him from the biblical texts. His designation as "the Zealot" suggests a background of fervent Jewish nationalism.

• Simon the Pharisee: In Luke 7:36-50, Simon the Pharisee hosts Jesus at his home, where a sinful woman anoints Jesus' feet. This event leads to a teaching moment about forgiveness and love.

• Simon of Cyrene: He is compelled by the Romans to carry the cross of Jesus on the way to the crucifixion (Mark 15:21, BSB). Simon of Cyrene is noted as the father of Alexander and Rufus, indicating his family's possible significance in the early Christian community.

• Simon the Sorcerer: Also known as Simon Magus, he appears in Acts 8:9-24. A magician in Samaria, he attempts to buy the power of the Holy Spirit from the apostles, leading to a stern rebuke from Peter.
