Strong's Lexicon neotés: Youth, young age Original Word: νεότης Word Origin: Derived from νέος (neos), meaning "new" or "young." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H5271 (נְעוּרִים, ne'urim): Refers to youth or the state of being young. - H3206 (יֶלֶד, yeled): Often translated as "child" or "youth." Usage: The term "neotés" refers to the period of life characterized by youthfulness, vigor, and the qualities associated with being young. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the stage of life that is marked by growth, learning, and development. It often carries connotations of inexperience but also potential and opportunity. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, youth was a significant phase of life, often associated with training, education, and preparation for adult responsibilities. Young people were expected to learn from their elders and prepare for their roles in society. In Jewish culture, youth was also a time for learning the Torah and developing one's character and faith. The concept of youth was often linked with both the potential for folly and the promise of future leadership.
