Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root עָרָה (arah), which means to be bare or exposed.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek term in the New Testament is γυμνός (G1132), which also means naked or bare. This term is used in similar contexts, such as in Revelation 3:17, where the church in Laodicea is described as "wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked," highlighting spiritual vulnerability and the need for repentance and divine covering. Usage: The term עֵירֹם is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe physical nakedness, often carrying connotations of vulnerability, shame, or exposure. It is used both literally and metaphorically to convey a state of being unprotected or defenseless. Context: The Hebrew word עֵירֹם (Erom) appears in various contexts within the Old Testament, often highlighting themes of vulnerability and exposure. In Genesis 2:25, the term is used to describe the state of Adam and Eve before the Fall: "And the man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame." This usage underscores the innocence and lack of shame associated with their original state. However, after the Fall, nakedness becomes associated with shame and the need for covering, as seen in Genesis 3:7, where Adam and Eve realize their nakedness and sew fig leaves together.
