Strong's Lexicon apallotrioó: To alienate, estrange Original Word: ἀπαλλοτριόω Word Origin: From the Greek prefix ἀπό (apo, meaning "from" or "away") and ἀλλότριος (allotrios, meaning "strange" or "foreign"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of alienation in the Old Testament can be related to the Hebrew word זָר (zar, Strong's H2114), which means "strange" or "foreign," often used to describe those who are outside the covenant community. Usage: The verb ἀπαλλοτριόω is used in the New Testament to describe the state of being alienated or estranged, particularly in a spiritual or relational sense. It conveys the idea of being separated or cut off from a relationship or community, often due to sin or disobedience. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of alienation was understood in both social and legal contexts. It could refer to the loss of citizenship or familial ties. In the biblical context, alienation often describes the spiritual separation between humanity and God due to sin. This separation is a central theme in the narrative of redemption, where reconciliation through Christ restores the broken relationship.
