Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb ἕννυμι (hennymi), meaning "to clothe" or "to put on." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek word ἐσθής corresponds to several Hebrew terms related to clothing and garments, including: - Strong's Hebrew 3830: לְבוּשׁ (lebush) • meaning clothing or apparel. - Strong's Hebrew 899: בֶּגֶד (beged) • meaning garment or covering. - Strong's Hebrew 4598: מַעֲטֶה (ma'ateh) • meaning mantle or cloak. These Hebrew terms similarly convey the idea of clothing as a significant aspect of one's identity and status, often used in contexts that highlight ceremonial or symbolic meanings. Usage: The word ἐσθής appears in the New Testament to describe clothing, often with a connotation of dignity or splendor. It is used in contexts that highlight the appearance or status of individuals through their attire. Context: The Greek term ἐσθής is used in the New Testament to describe garments that are often associated with dignity, status, or ceremonial importance. It appears in passages that emphasize the visual and symbolic significance of clothing. For instance, in Luke 23:11, Herod and his soldiers mock Jesus by dressing Him in "splendid clothing" (ἐσθής λαμπρά), highlighting the irony of their mockery in contrast to His true kingship. Similarly, in Acts 10:30, Cornelius recounts his vision of an angel "in bright clothing" (ἐσθής λαμπρά), underscoring the divine and awe-inspiring nature of the encounter. The use of ἐσθής in these contexts often serves to draw attention to the contrast between external appearances and internal realities, a theme prevalent in biblical teachings. The emphasis on clothing in these passages can also reflect cultural understandings of honor, authority, and divine presence, as clothing was a significant indicator of one's social and religious standing in the ancient world.
