Strong's Lexicon gnóstos: Known, well-known, notable Original Word: γνωστός Part of Speech: Adjective Transliteration: gnóstos Pronunciation: gno-STOS Phonetic Spelling: (gnoce-tos') Definition: Known, well-known, notable Meaning: known, an acquaintance. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb γινώσκω (ginōskō), meaning "to know." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of being known is יָדַע (yada, Strong's H3045), which means "to know" or "to be acquainted with." Usage: The Greek adjective γνωστός (gnóstos) is used to describe something or someone that is known, recognized, or familiar. It often conveys the idea of being well-known or notable, either in a positive or negative sense. In the New Testament, it is used to describe things that are evident or manifest, as well as people who are recognized or acknowledged. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, being "known" or "well-known" could carry significant social implications. A person's reputation, whether good or bad, could affect their social standing and influence. In the context of the early Christian church, being known for one's faith and deeds was important for the spread of the Gospel and the establishment of Christian communities.
