Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primary particle Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct equivalent in the Hebrew Strong's Concordance for the Greek particle ἀτέρ. However, the concept of separation or absence can be found in various Hebrew terms that convey similar meanings, such as בְּלִי (beli, Strong's Hebrew 1097), which means "without" or "not." Usage: The Greek particle ἀτέρ is used to denote the absence or separation of something. It is often translated as "without" or "apart from" in English. Context: The Greek particle ἀτέρ (atér) is a relatively rare term in the New Testament, primarily used to convey the idea of separation or absence. It functions as a preposition and is typically translated as "without" or "apart from." This term emphasizes the lack or exclusion of something in relation to another. In the context of the New Testament, ἀτέρ is used to highlight the absence of certain qualities or conditions that are otherwise expected or necessary. It serves to underscore the insufficiency or incompleteness when something is missing. The use of ἀτέρ can be seen in discussions of spiritual or moral conditions, where the absence of a particular virtue or divine presence is significant. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) provides a clear translation of ἀτέρ in its occurrences, ensuring that the reader understands the implications of what is being described as lacking or separate. The term is not frequently used, which makes its appearances noteworthy for the emphasis they provide in the text.
