Strong's Lexicon hupandros: Married, under a husband Original Word: ὕπανδρος Word Origin: From the Greek preposition "ὑπό" (hupo, meaning "under") and "ἀνήρ" (aner, meaning "man" or "husband"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent to "hupandros," the concept of a woman being under the authority of her husband is reflected in various Hebrew terms related to marriage, such as "אִשָּׁה" (ishah, meaning "woman" or "wife") and "בַּעַל" (ba'al, meaning "husband" or "lord"). Usage: The term "hupandros" is used to describe a woman who is married, specifically indicating her status as being under the authority or protection of a husband. It reflects the cultural understanding of marriage in the biblical context, where a woman was considered to be under the headship of her husband. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, marriage was a significant institution, and a woman's identity was often closely tied to her marital status. The concept of being "under a husband" reflects the patriarchal structure of ancient society, where the husband was seen as the head of the household. This understanding is consistent with the biblical view of marriage as a covenant relationship, where the husband is called to love and lead his wife, and the wife is called to respect and support her husband (Ephesians 5:22-33).
