Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in Strong's Concordance, the Greek term "Ἀράβιος" (G688) is used in the New Testament to refer to Arabians, as seen in Acts 2:11. Usage: The term "Arabiy" is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to the people or things associated with Arabia, a region located to the south and east of Israel. It is often used to describe the nomadic tribes and inhabitants of the Arabian Peninsula. The word can denote both the geographical region and its people. Cultural and Historical Background: In biblical times, Arabia was known for its vast deserts and nomadic tribes. The Arabians were often traders and herdsmen, known for their camels and caravans that traversed the desert. They played a significant role in the trade routes that connected the ancient Near East with Africa and Asia. The cultural interactions between the Israelites and the Arabians included trade, conflict, and occasional alliances.
