Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is ἀριθμός (arithmos), Strong's Greek #706, which also means "number." Usage: The Hebrew word "mispo" refers to a count or number, often used in contexts where enumeration or accounting is involved. It can denote a specific number or the act of counting itself. In the biblical context, it is often associated with census-taking, listing, or recording quantities. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, counting and recording numbers were significant for various reasons, including military organization, taxation, and religious observance. The act of taking a census, for example, was a way to organize the community and ensure that each tribe and family was accounted for.
