Berean Strong's Lexicon eisodos: Entrance, access, way in, coming in Original Word: εἴσοδος Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: eisodos Pronunciation: ā'-so-dos Phonetic Spelling: (ice'-od-os) Definition: Entrance, access, way in, coming in Meaning: (act of) entering, an entrance, entry. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is בּוֹא (bo, Strong's Hebrew 935), which means "to come" or "to enter." Usage: The term "eisodos" primarily refers to the act of entering or the entrance itself. It can denote both a literal and metaphorical entry. In the New Testament, it is used to describe physical entrances, as well as the concept of entering into a new phase or relationship, particularly in the context of the Christian faith. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of "eisodos" would have been understood in both practical and philosophical terms. Practically, it referred to the physical act of entering a space, such as a city or a building. Philosophically, it could imply entering into a new state of being or understanding. In Jewish culture, the idea of entering was significant in terms of entering the Promised Land or the Temple, symbolizing a transition into a place of divine promise or presence.
