Strong's Lexicon graptos: Written Original Word: γραπτός Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb γράφω (graphō), meaning "to write." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of "written" is כָּתוּב (kathub), Strong's Hebrew 3789, which also means "written" or "inscribed." Usage: The term "graptos" is used to describe something that is written or inscribed. In the New Testament, it often refers to the written word of God, the Scriptures, or any text that has been formally documented. It emphasizes the authority and permanence of what is recorded. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient world, written texts were highly valued for their authority and reliability. The Jewish tradition held the Scriptures in high esteem as the written word of God, and this reverence carried into the early Christian church. The act of writing was seen as a means of preserving divine revelation and ensuring its transmission across generations.
