Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Aramaic תָּם (tam) in the Strong's Concordance, as Greek and Aramaic are distinct languages with different lexical structures. However, Greek terms that convey similar locative meanings include ἐκεῖ (ekei), meaning "there," which is used in the New Testament to indicate a specific place or position.

Usage: This term is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament to specify a location or to indicate presence in a particular place.

Context: The Aramaic word תָּם (tam) appears in the context of the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra, which contain sections written in Aramaic. The term is used to convey the idea of "there," pointing to a specific location or presence. In the Berean Standard Bible, this word is translated to reflect its locative function, helping to provide clarity in narrative and descriptive passages. The use of תָּם (tam) is consistent with the broader Semitic linguistic tradition, where similar terms are employed to denote spatial relationships and positions. The word is part of the Aramaic lexicon that enriches the biblical text, offering insights into the historical and cultural context of the time.
