Berean Strong's Lexicon kathémerinos: Daily, day by day Original Word: καθ' ἡμέραν Word Origin: Derived from the Greek preposition "κατά" (kata, meaning "according to") and "ἡμέρα" (hēmera, meaning "day"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent concept can be found in words like "יוֹם" (yom, Strong's H3117), meaning "day," which is used in contexts of daily activities and routines, such as the daily sacrifices described in the Old Testament (e.g., Exodus 29:38-42). Usage: The term "kathémerinos" is used to describe something that occurs every day or is related to daily activities. It emphasizes regularity and routine, often in the context of daily needs or practices. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greco-Roman world, daily life was structured around regular routines, including meals, work, and religious practices. The concept of daily provision and sustenance was central to the lives of people, who often relied on daily wages and resources. In Jewish culture, daily sacrifices and prayers were integral to religious observance, reflecting a rhythm of life centered on devotion to God.
