Strong's Lexicon geórgos: Farmer, Husbandman, Vinedresser Original Word: γεωργός Word Origin: From γῆ (gē, meaning "earth" or "land") and ἔργον (ergon, meaning "work" or "task") Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H406: אִכָּר (ikkar) - Farmer, plowman - H127: אֲדָמָה (adamah) - Ground, land, soil Usage: The term "geórgos" refers to someone who works the land, specifically a farmer or a vinedresser. In the New Testament, it is used metaphorically to describe God as the caretaker of His people, as well as to illustrate principles of spiritual growth and stewardship. Cultural and Historical Background: In the agrarian society of ancient Israel and the Greco-Roman world, farming was a common occupation. Farmers were responsible for cultivating the land, planting seeds, and harvesting crops. The imagery of farming was deeply embedded in the culture and was often used in teaching and parables to convey spiritual truths. The role of a farmer was not only to plant and harvest but also to nurture and protect the crops, ensuring their growth and productivity.
