Berean Strong's Lexicon prodotés: Traitor, Betrayer Original Word: προδότης Word Origin: Derived from προδίδωμι (prodidōmi), meaning "to give before" or "to betray." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H898 (בּוֹגֵד, boged) - often translated as "traitor" or "treacherous" in the Old Testament, such as in Isaiah 24:16. Usage: The term "prodotés" refers to someone who betrays trust or is disloyal, particularly in a context of personal or communal relationships. In the New Testament, it is used to describe individuals who act treacherously, often in a spiritual or moral sense. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, loyalty and trust were highly valued in both personal relationships and civic duties. Betrayal was considered a grave offense, often leading to severe social and legal consequences. In Jewish culture, betrayal was seen as a violation of covenantal relationships, whether with God or within the community. The concept of betrayal is deeply rooted in the narrative of Judas Iscariot, whose act of betraying Jesus is one of the most infamous examples in Christian theology.
