Transliteration: Asugkritos
Pronunciation: ah-soon'-kree-tos
Phonetic Spelling: (as-oong'-kree-tos)
Definition: Asyncritus
Meaning: Asyncritus, a Christian in Rome.

Word Origin: Derived from the Greek prefix "ἀ-" (a-, meaning "not") and "συγκρίνω" (sugkrinō, meaning "to compare" or "to judge together").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Hebrew equivalent for the name Asyncritus, as it is a Greek name. However, the concept of being "incomparable" or "unique" can be related to Hebrew words like "פֶּלֶא" (pele, Strong's H6382), meaning "wonder" or "marvel."

Usage: Asyncritus is a personal name mentioned in the New Testament. It is used to refer to a Christian in Rome to whom the Apostle Paul sends greetings in his epistle to the Romans. The name itself suggests someone who is "incomparable" or "not easily compared," though this is more a reflection of the etymology than a description of the individual.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the first-century Roman world, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of a person's character or status. Asyncritus, being a Greek name, suggests that he may have been a Hellenistic Jew or a Gentile convert to Christianity. The early Christian community in Rome was diverse, comprising both Jews and Gentiles, and was known for its faith and perseverance amidst persecution.
