Strong's Lexicon Sodi: Secret, counsel, intimate circle Original Word: סוֹדִי Word Origin: Derived from the root סוֹד (sod), meaning "council" or "secret." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of divine counsel or secret is μυστήριον (mystērion), Strong's Greek 3466, which is used in the New Testament to describe the mysteries of God's kingdom revealed to believers. Usage: The term "Sodi" is used to denote a sense of intimate counsel or secret knowledge shared within a close circle. It implies a level of confidentiality and trust among those who are part of this inner group. In the biblical context, it often refers to the divine counsel or the intimate relationship between God and His chosen ones. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the concept of a "sod" or secret council was significant. It was common for kings and leaders to have a close group of advisors with whom they shared confidential matters. This concept is mirrored in the biblical narrative, where God is depicted as having a "sod" with His prophets and faithful followers, revealing His plans and purposes to them.
