Strong's Lexicon anantirrétós: Indisputably, undeniably Original Word: ἀναντιρρήτως Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word ἀναντίρρητος (anantirrétos), which is a compound of ἀν- (an-, a negative prefix) and ἀντιρρητέος (antirrhetéos, meaning "to contradict" or "to dispute"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the concept of something being indisputable or undeniable can be related to Hebrew terms that convey certainty or truth, such as אֱמֶת (emet, Strong's H571), meaning "truth" or "faithfulness." Usage: The adverb ἀναντιρρήτως is used to convey the sense of something being beyond dispute or contradiction. It emphasizes the certainty and undeniability of a statement or fact. In the context of the New Testament, it underscores the truth of a claim that is accepted without question. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, rhetoric and debate were highly valued skills. The ability to argue effectively was crucial in public discourse, legal settings, and philosophical discussions. The use of a term like ἀναντιρρήτως would have been significant in asserting a truth that was considered self-evident or universally acknowledged, cutting through the typical debates and disputes of the time.
