Strong's Lexicon homou: together, at the same place, at the same time Original Word: ὁμοῦ Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word ὁμός (homos), meaning "same" or "together." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "homou," the concept of togetherness and unity can be found in Hebrew words like יַחַד (yachad, Strong's H3162), which also means "together" or "united." Usage: The Greek adverb "homou" is used to denote a sense of togetherness or simultaneity. It conveys the idea of being in the same place or occurring at the same time. In the New Testament, it often emphasizes unity or collective action among individuals or groups. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of unity and togetherness was significant in both social and religious contexts. The early Christian community, as depicted in the New Testament, placed a strong emphasis on communal living and shared experiences, reflecting the teachings of Jesus about love, fellowship, and unity among believers. The use of "homou" in the New Testament underscores the importance of these values in the early Church.
