Strong's Lexicon husteréma: Lack, deficiency, need, shortcoming Original Word: ὑστέρημα Part of Speech: Noun, Neuter Transliteration: husteréma Pronunciation: hoo-ster'-ay-mah Phonetic Spelling: (hoos-ter'-ay-mah) Definition: Lack, deficiency, need, shortcoming Meaning: (a) of things or persons: that which is lacking, a defect or shortcoming, (b) want, poverty. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb ὑστερέω (hustereō), meaning "to lack" or "to fall short." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "husteréma," the concept of lack or deficiency can be found in words like חֶסֶר (cheser, Strong's H2637), meaning "lack" or "want." Usage: The term "husteréma" refers to a state of deficiency or lack, often in a material or spiritual sense. It can denote a shortfall or inadequacy in resources, abilities, or spiritual qualities. In the New Testament, it is used to describe situations where something is missing or insufficient. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of lack or deficiency was often associated with poverty or need. The early Christian communities, which included many who were economically disadvantaged, would have been familiar with the idea of material lack. However, the New Testament also expands this concept to include spiritual deficiencies, emphasizing the need for spiritual growth and reliance on God's provision.
