hendekatos: Eleventh

Original Word: ἑνδέκατος
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: hendekatos
Pronunciation: hen-deh'-ka-tos
Phonetic Spelling: (hen-dek'-at-os)
Definition: Eleventh
Meaning: eleventh.

Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word "ἕνδεκα" (hendeka), meaning "eleven."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for the ordinal "eleventh," the concept of ordinal numbers is present in Hebrew, such as "עֲשִׁירִי" (asar), meaning "tenth," which is related in sequence.

Usage: The term "hendekatos" is used in the New Testament to denote the ordinal number "eleventh." It is primarily used to indicate sequence or order, particularly in the context of time or position.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greco-Roman world, numbers and their sequences were significant for various aspects of daily life, including timekeeping, commerce, and religious practices. The ordinal numbers, such as "hendekatos," were essential for organizing events, determining order, and understanding chronological sequences. In Jewish culture, numbers often held symbolic meanings, and the eleventh position could imply a sense of incompleteness or transition, as it follows the number ten, which often symbolizes completeness or perfection.
