Strong's Lexicon arithmos: Number Original Word: ἀριθμός Word Origin: Derived from the root word ἀραρίσκω (arariskō), meaning "to fit together" or "to join." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H4557 (מִסְפָּר, mispar): Refers to a number or tally. - H4487 (מָנָה, manah): To count, number, or reckon. Usage: The Greek word "arithmos" refers to a number or a count. It is used in the New Testament to denote a specific quantity or a total sum. The term can imply both literal and symbolic meanings, depending on the context. In biblical literature, numbers often carry significant theological and symbolic weight, representing completeness, divine order, or judgment. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient world, numbers were not only used for counting and commerce but also held symbolic meanings. In Jewish and early Christian thought, numbers like 3, 7, 12, and 40 were imbued with spiritual significance. The Greeks, including early Christians, inherited a rich tradition of numerology from both their own culture and the Hebrew Scriptures, where numbers often conveyed deeper spiritual truths.
