Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for the Greek adverb πώς, similar inquiries about "how" are often expressed in Hebrew using words like אֵיךְ (eikh) or כֵּיצַד (keitzad).

Usage: The Greek adverb πώς (pōs) is used to inquire about the manner or means by which something is done. It often introduces questions that seek to understand the method or reason behind an action or event. In the New Testament, it is frequently used in dialogues where individuals are seeking clarification or understanding.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, questions about "how" something was done were essential for philosophical inquiry and practical living. The use of πώς reflects a common human desire to understand processes and reasons, which was as relevant in ancient times as it is today.
