Strong's Lexicon aneu: without Original Word: ἄνευ Word Origin: A primary particle Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "ἄνευ," the concept of "without" or "lacking" can be found in Hebrew words such as "בְּלִי" (beli, Strong's H1097) which also conveys the idea of absence or lack. Usage: The Greek preposition "ἄνευ" (aneu) is used to denote the absence or lack of something. It is often translated as "without" in English. In the New Testament, it is used to express the idea of something being done or existing independently of something else, or lacking a particular element or condition. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, "ἄνευ" is used to convey the idea of independence or separation from a particular condition or requirement. This reflects a broader Greco-Roman understanding of autonomy and self-sufficiency, which was often valued in philosophical and ethical discussions of the time. The use of "ἄνευ" in the New Testament often highlights the sufficiency of Christ and the gospel, emphasizing that certain spiritual realities or actions are complete in themselves, without the need for additional human effort or ritual.
