428. aneuthetos
Strong's Lexicon
aneuthetos: Improper, disorderly, not fitting

Original Word: ἀνευθέτως
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: aneuthetos
Pronunciation: ah-nev-THEH-tos
Phonetic Spelling: (an-yoo'-the-tos)
Definition: Improper, disorderly, not fitting
Meaning: unfitted, unsuitable, inconvenient, not well placed.

Word Origin: Derived from the Greek prefix ἀ- (a-, "not") and εὐθέτως (euthetos, "well-placed" or "properly arranged")

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "aneuthetos," the concept of disorder or impropriety can be related to Hebrew terms such as תֹּהוּ (tohu, "formless" or "chaos") as seen in Genesis 1:2, which describes the earth before God's creative order was established.

Usage: The term "aneuthetos" is used to describe something that is not properly arranged or is out of order. It conveys a sense of disorderliness or impropriety, often in a moral or ethical context. In the New Testament, it is used to highlight actions or behaviors that are not in alignment with God's standards or the expected conduct of believers.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, order and propriety were highly valued, both in public life and in personal conduct. The concept of living in a manner that was "fitting" or "proper" was integral to maintaining social harmony and personal honor. The early Christian community, emerging within this cultural milieu, emphasized living in a way that reflected the teachings of Jesus and the apostles, often contrasting with the prevailing cultural norms.
