Berean Strong's Lexicon hósautós: likewise, in the same way Original Word: ὡσαύτως Word Origin: Derived from the Greek words ὡς (hós, meaning "as" or "like") and αὐτός (autós, meaning "self" or "same"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for ὡσαύτως, the concept of "likewise" or "in the same way" can be seen in Hebrew conjunctions and phrases that express similarity or equivalence, such as כֵּן (ken, meaning "thus" or "so"). Usage: The adverb ὡσαύτως is used to indicate similarity or equivalence in manner or degree. It is often translated as "likewise" or "in the same way" and is used to draw parallels or comparisons between actions, behaviors, or instructions. In the New Testament, it frequently appears in contexts where similar instructions or behaviors are being applied to different groups or situations. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of imitation and following examples was a common rhetorical and philosophical tool. The use of ὡσαύτως in the New Testament reflects this cultural understanding, emphasizing the importance of consistency and uniformity in behavior and practice among believers. It underscores the early Christian emphasis on community and shared values.
