Strong's Lexicon mikron: small, little, short Original Word: μικρόν Word Origin: Derived from the Greek root μικρός (mikros), meaning "small" or "little." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is קָטָן (qatan), meaning "small" or "little." Usage: The term "mikron" is used in the New Testament to denote something of small size, quantity, or duration. It can refer to physical size, as in something that is small in stature, or to time, indicating a short period. The word is often used metaphorically to describe humility or insignificance in the eyes of the world. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, size often symbolized power and importance. Thus, the use of "mikron" in the New Testament can carry a counter-cultural message, emphasizing the value of humility and the significance of what is often considered small or insignificant by worldly standards. This aligns with the teachings of Jesus, who often highlighted the importance of the "least" in the Kingdom of God. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originmasc. or neut. sing. of mikros, q.v.
