Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H8141 (שָׁנָה, shanah): The Hebrew equivalent for "year," used extensively in the Old Testament to denote the passage of time, age, and specific years in historical records.

Usage: The Greek word "ἔτος" (etos) is used to denote a period of a year. In the New Testament, it is often used in contexts that refer to the passage of time, age, or specific years in historical or prophetic contexts. It is a common term that appears in narratives, parables, and teachings to indicate the duration of events or the age of individuals.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Greco-Roman world, the concept of a year was based on the solar calendar, similar to the modern understanding. The Jewish calendar, however, was lunar-based, with adjustments to align with the solar year. The year was a significant unit of time for agricultural, religious, and civil purposes. In Jewish tradition, certain years held special significance, such as the Sabbatical year (every seventh year) and the Year of Jubilee (every fiftieth year).
