Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: A primary preposition

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "χωρίς," similar concepts of separation or exclusion can be found in Hebrew prepositions such as "בְּלִי" (without, not) and "מִבַּלְעֲדֵי" (apart from, except). These terms are used in the Old Testament to convey ideas of absence or exclusion, paralleling the usage of "χωρίς" in the Greek New Testament.

Usage: • The term "χωρίς" is used in the New Testament to denote separation or exclusion. It often conveys the idea of something being apart from or independent of something else.

Context: The Greek preposition "χωρίς" is a versatile term found in various contexts throughout the New Testament. It primarily signifies separation or exclusion, often translated as "without" or "apart from" in English. This word is used to express the absence of something or someone, indicating a state of being independent or distinct from another entity.

In theological contexts, "χωρίς" is significant in discussions of salvation and the nature of Christ. For instance, in John 15:5, Jesus states, "Apart from Me, you can do nothing," emphasizing the necessity of abiding in Him for spiritual fruitfulness. Similarly, in Hebrews 9:22, the phrase "without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness" underscores the essential role of Christ's sacrifice in the atonement process.

The term also appears in discussions of faith and works, as seen in James 2:26: "As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead." Here, "χωρίς" highlights the inseparable relationship between genuine faith and corresponding actions.

Overall, "χωρίς" serves as a critical linguistic tool in the New Testament, illustrating the concept of dependency and the essential connections between various spiritual truths.
