Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence between Hebrew and Greek terms, the concept of sufficiency in the New Testament can be related to Greek words such as ἀρκεῖν (arkeō • Strong's Greek 714), which means "to be sufficient" or "to be enough." This Greek term is used in similar contexts to express the idea of adequacy or sufficiency, particularly in relation to God's provision or grace.

Usage: This word appears in the Hebrew Bible to express sufficiency or adequacy, often in contexts where a measure or limit is being considered.

Context: • The Hebrew word מַדַּי is a term that signifies sufficiency or adequacy. It is derived from the root דַּי, which is commonly used to denote "enough" or "sufficient."

This term is often used in conjunction with questions or statements that pertain to the adequacy of resources, actions, or conditions.
• In the Berean Standard Bible, מַדַּי is translated in contexts that emphasize the sufficiency of God's provision or the adequacy of a particular situation. For example, it may be used in passages where the sufficiency of God's grace or the adequacy of His provision is highlighted.
