Strong's Lexicon husterésis: Lack, deficiency, need Original Word: ὑστέρησις Word Origin: Derived from the verb ὑστερέω (hustereō), meaning "to lack" or "to fall short." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - חֶסֶר (cheser) - H2637: Lack, want - מַחְסוֹר (machsor) - H4270: Need, poverty Usage: The term "husterésis" refers to a state of deficiency or lack. It is used in the New Testament to describe situations where there is a shortfall or need, often in a material or spiritual sense. The word conveys the idea of not having enough or being in want. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of lack or deficiency was often associated with poverty or neediness. The early Christian communities, as depicted in the New Testament, were familiar with economic hardships and communal sharing to address such deficiencies. The idea of lacking was not only material but also spiritual, emphasizing the need for God's provision and grace.
