Berean Strong's Lexicon katamonas: Dwelling place, abode Original Word: καταμονάς Part of Speech: Adverb Transliteration: katamonas Pronunciation: kah-tah-mo-NAHS Phonetic Spelling: (kat-am-on'-as) Definition: Dwelling place, abode Meaning: along, apart, in private. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek preposition "κατά" (kata, meaning "down" or "according to") and "μονή" (mone, meaning "abode" or "dwelling"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of a dwelling place is מָעוֹן (ma'on), which appears in passages like Psalm 90:1, "Lord, You have been our dwelling place throughout all generations." Usage: The term "katamonas" refers to a dwelling place or abode, often used in a metaphorical sense to describe a spiritual or eternal dwelling. It conveys the idea of a place where one resides permanently or for an extended period. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the spiritual abode of believers in Christ or the eternal dwelling prepared by God. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of a dwelling place was significant, as it represented stability, security, and identity. Homes were central to family life and community. In a spiritual context, the idea of an eternal dwelling with God was a powerful image for early Christians, who often faced persecution and instability in their earthly lives. The promise of a heavenly abode offered hope and assurance of God's eternal provision and presence.
