Strong's Lexicon taktos: Appointed, arranged, set Original Word: τακτός Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb τάσσω (tassō), meaning "to arrange" or "to appoint." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of appointment or order is יָעַד (ya'ad), Strong's Hebrew 3259, which means "to appoint" or "to designate." Usage: The Greek adjective "taktos" refers to something that is arranged or appointed, often implying a sense of order or pre-determined plan. In the context of the New Testament, it can denote something that is set by authority or divine appointment. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of order and arrangement was highly valued, both in societal structures and in philosophical thought. The idea of things being "appointed" or "set" was often associated with the divine order of the cosmos, reflecting a belief in a structured universe governed by higher powers. This cultural backdrop would have influenced the early Christian understanding of divine appointment and order as expressed in the New Testament.
