These Greek terms share a similar function in the New Testament, indicating a position or state that is intermediate or separating two entities.

Usage: This Aramaic term appears in the context of distinguishing or separating entities, often used to indicate a position or condition that is intermediate or in the midst of two or more elements.

Context: The Aramaic word בֵּין (bein) is a preposition that functions similarly to its Hebrew counterpart, indicating a spatial, temporal, or logical separation or distinction. It is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra, where Aramaic is the language of the text. The term is employed to express the idea of being in the middle of two points, whether in a physical sense, such as being between two locations, or in a metaphorical sense, such as being between two choices or conditions. In the Berean Standard Bible, the usage of בֵּין can be seen in contexts where clarity and distinction are necessary, often highlighting the importance of discernment and decision-making.
