Strong's Lexicon
asumphónos: Disagreeing, discordant, incompatible

Original Word: ἄσυμφωνος
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: asumphónos
Pronunciation: ah-soom-FOH-nos
Phonetic Spelling: (as-oom'-fo-nos)
Definition: Disagreeing, discordant, incompatible
Meaning: dissonant, discordant; met: at variance.

Word Origin: From Greek prefix ἀ- (a-, "not") and σύμφωνος (symphónos, "harmonious" or "agreeing")

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "asumphónos," the concept of discord or lack of agreement can be related to Hebrew words such as מַחֲלוֹקֶת (machaloket, "division" or "dispute") and רִיב (riv, "strife" or "contention").

Usage: The term "asumphónos" is used to describe a lack of harmony or agreement. It conveys the idea of being out of sync or not in accord with one another. In a biblical context, it often refers to relationships or situations where there is discord or a lack of unity.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, harmony and agreement were highly valued, both in music and in social relationships. The concept of "symphony" (from which "symphónos" is derived) was not only musical but also metaphorical for unity and concord in society. Discord, therefore, was seen as a disruption of the natural order and harmony that was desired in both personal and communal relationships.
