(Compare: ἀπαρνέομαι.) Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Middle voice from the Greek root ἀρ- (ar-), which is related to the concept of denial or refusal.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ἀρνέομαι, the concept of denial or rejection can be found in several Hebrew terms, such as מָאַס (ma'as, Strong's H3988), which means to reject or despise, and כָּחַשׁ (kachash, Strong's H3584), which means to deny or deceive. These terms capture similar themes of refusal and disowning in the Old Testament context. Usage: The term ἀρνέομαι is used in the New Testament to describe the act of denying or rejecting, often in the context of faith or relationship with Christ. It can refer to both verbal denial and a lifestyle that contradicts one's professed beliefs. Context: The Greek verb ἀρνέομαι appears in several key passages in the New Testament, often highlighting the tension between faith and denial. One of the most notable uses is in the context of Peter's denial of Jesus, as recorded in the Gospels. In Matthew 26:34, Jesus predicts Peter's denial: "Truly I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times." Here, ἀρνέομαι underscores the gravity of Peter's actions, as he verbally disowns his association with Jesus.
