Strong's Lexicon gumnotés: Nakedness Original Word: γυμνότης Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word γυμνός (gumnos), meaning "naked" or "bare." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of nakedness is עֵרוֹם (erom), Strong's Hebrew 6174, which also conveys the idea of being unclothed or exposed. Usage: The term "gumnotés" refers to the state of being without clothing, or metaphorically, a state of vulnerability or exposure. In the New Testament, it is often used to describe physical nakedness but can also imply a lack of protection or defense, highlighting human frailty and need. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greco-Roman world, nakedness was often associated with shame, poverty, or humiliation. Public nudity was generally frowned upon, except in certain contexts like athletic competitions or specific religious rituals. In Jewish culture, nakedness was particularly associated with shame and dishonor, reflecting the broader biblical theme of sin and the fall of humanity (Genesis 3:7-11).
