Strong's Lexicon eusémos: Well-marked, distinct, conspicuous Original Word: εὔσημος Word Origin: From the Greek prefix εὖ (eu, meaning "good" or "well") and σῆμα (sēma, meaning "sign" or "mark"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "eusémos," the concept of being distinct or marked can be related to Hebrew words like אוֹת (oth, Strong's H226), meaning "sign" or "mark." Usage: The term "eusémos" is used to describe something that is clearly marked or easily recognizable. In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to something that stands out due to its distinctiveness or clarity. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, the concept of being "well-marked" or "distinct" was significant in various contexts, from identifying individuals in a community to distinguishing between different philosophical ideas. The clarity and distinctiveness implied by "eusémos" would have been valued in a society that prized order and understanding.
