Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek term "Hebraikos" corresponds to the Hebrew term עִבְרִי (Ivri), which is often used to denote the Hebrew people or language.

Usage: The term "Hebraikos" is used to describe something that pertains to the Hebrew language or the Hebrew people. In the New Testament, it is often used to refer to the Hebrew language, distinguishing it from Greek or Aramaic.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the first century, the Jewish people were dispersed across the Roman Empire, and many were bilingual, speaking both Greek and Hebrew (or Aramaic). Hebrew was the liturgical and scholarly language of the Jewish people, used in religious texts and practices. The use of "Hebraikos" in the New Testament reflects the cultural and linguistic diversity of the time, as well as the importance of Hebrew as a marker of Jewish identity.
