Strong's Lexicon péra: beyond, on the other side Original Word: πέρα Word Origin: From a primary preposition (peran) meaning "across" or "beyond" Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is עֵבֶר (eber), Strong's Hebrew 5676, which also means "beyond" or "across." Usage: The Greek word "πέρα" (péira) is used to denote a location or position that is beyond or on the other side of a particular point. It is often used in the New Testament to describe geographical locations, indicating movement from one side to another or referring to something that lies beyond a certain boundary. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of the New Testament, "πέρα" is often used in relation to the geography of the region, particularly in reference to the Jordan River and the Sea of Galilee. The term would have been familiar to the original audience as it described physical locations that were significant in the ministry of Jesus and the travels of the apostles. The concept of "beyond" also carried metaphorical implications, suggesting spiritual or moral boundaries.
