Topical Lexicon Word Origin: From the Greek words τέσσαρες (tessares), meaning "four," and χίλιοι (chilioi), meaning "thousand."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Hebrew equivalent for τετρακισχίλιοι, as it is a specific Greek numerical term. However, the concept of counting large numbers of people or items can be related to Hebrew terms for thousands, such as אֶלֶף (eleph), meaning "thousand." Usage: This term is used in the New Testament to denote a specific number, particularly in the context of counting people or items. Context: The Greek term τετρακισχίλιοι appears in the New Testament in the context of the miraculous feeding narratives. It is specifically used in the Gospel accounts to describe the number of men fed by Jesus with a few loaves and fish. This event is distinct from the feeding of the five thousand and is recorded in the Gospels of Matthew and Mark.
