Strong's Lexicon rhabbouni: Teacher, Master Original Word: ῥαββουνί Part of Speech: Aramaic Transliterated Word (Indeclinable) Transliteration: rhabbouni Pronunciation: hrab-boo-NEE Phonetic Spelling: (hrab-bon-ee') Definition: Teacher, Master Meaning: Rabbi, my master, teacher; a title of respect often applied to Christ. Word Origin: Derived from the Aramaic term רַבּוּנִי (rabbouni), which is a form of the word רַבִּי (rabbi). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H7227 (רַב, rab): Meaning "great" or "chief." - H7229 (רַבִּי, rabbi): Meaning "my master" or "my teacher." Usage: The term "rhabbouni" is an honorific title meaning "my great master" or "my teacher." It is a more emphatic form of "rabbi," indicating a deep respect and personal relationship with the teacher. In the New Testament, it is used to address Jesus, highlighting His role as a revered teacher and spiritual leader. Cultural and Historical Background: In Jewish culture during the time of Jesus, teachers of the law and religious leaders were often addressed with titles of respect such as "rabbi" or "rabboni." These titles signified not only the individual's role as a teacher but also their authority and the respect they commanded within the community. The use of "rhabbouni" reflects a personal and intimate acknowledgment of Jesus' authority and wisdom.
