Strong's Lexicon illen: These, those Original Word: אִלֵּין Word Origin: Derived from the Aramaic root אֵל (el), meaning "these" or "those." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for the Aramaic "illen," the Greek demonstrative pronouns "οὗτος" (houtos) and "ἐκεῖνος" (ekeinos) serve similar functions in the New Testament, meaning "this" and "that," respectively. Usage: The term "illen" is an Aramaic demonstrative adjective used to refer to specific items or people within a context, often translated as "these" or "those" in English. It is used to point out particular objects or individuals, emphasizing their identity or role in a narrative. Cultural and Historical Background: Aramaic was a common language in the Near East during the time of the Babylonian and Persian empires. It was widely used among the Jewish people, especially during and after the Babylonian exile. The use of Aramaic in the Hebrew Bible, particularly in books like Daniel and Ezra, reflects the historical context of Jewish life under foreign rule and the linguistic influences of the time.
