Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for παρόμοιος, the concept of similarity or likeness can be found in Hebrew words such as דָּמָה (damah, Strong's Hebrew 1819), which means "to be like" or "to resemble." This Hebrew term is used in the Old Testament to convey the idea of likeness or comparison, similar to the function of παρόμοιος in the Greek New Testament. Usage: The word παρόμοιος is used in the New Testament to describe things that are similar or comparable in nature or appearance. It emphasizes the likeness between two or more entities. Context: The Greek word παρόμοιος appears in the New Testament to highlight the concept of similarity or resemblance. It is used to draw comparisons between entities, emphasizing their likeness in certain aspects. This term is often employed in parables or teachings to illustrate spiritual truths by comparing them to familiar earthly concepts. The use of παρόμοιος helps to bridge the understanding between the known and the unknown, making abstract or spiritual ideas more relatable to the audience. In the Berean Standard Bible, παρόμοιος is used in contexts where the speaker or writer seeks to draw a parallel between two ideas or objects, often to elucidate a moral or spiritual lesson. The term underscores the importance of understanding spiritual truths through the lens of familiar experiences or objects, thereby enhancing comprehension and retention of the teachings.
