Strong's Lexicon enalios: Of the sea, marine Original Word: ἐνάλιος Part of Speech: Adjective Transliteration: enalios Pronunciation: en-AL-ee-os Phonetic Spelling: (en-al'-ee-os) Definition: marine, living in the sea. Meaning: Pertaining to the sea; marine or sea-dwelling. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek preposition ἐν (en, "in") and ἅλς (hals, "salt" or "sea"), thus literally meaning "in the sea." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • H3220 יָם (yam): This Hebrew word means "sea" and is used extensively in the Old Testament to refer to large bodies of water, including the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. • H8415 תְּהוֹם (tehom): Often translated as "deep" or "abyss," this term is used to describe the depths of the sea or ocean, emphasizing the mysterious and unfathomable nature of the waters. These Hebrew terms, like ἐνάλιος, underscore the biblical theme of the sea as a significant and multifaceted element of God's creation, representing both the beauty and the power of the natural world. Usage: The term ἐνάλιος is used to describe anything that is of the sea or related to the sea, often referring to sea creatures or marine life. Context: The Greek term ἐνάλιος appears in ancient Greek literature to describe entities that inhabit or are associated with the sea. While the specific term ἐνάλιος does not appear in the New Testament, its conceptual relevance is evident in the biblical context where the sea and its creatures are frequently mentioned. The sea is often depicted as a place of mystery and power, reflecting God's creation and sovereignty. In the Berean Standard Bible, the sea is a significant element in various narratives, symbolizing both chaos and divine order. The Bible frequently references marine life to illustrate God's creative power and the diversity of His creation. For example, in Genesis 1:21 (BSB), it is written, "So God created the great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters teemed, according to their kinds." This passage highlights the abundance and variety of sea life, which would be encompassed by the term ἐνάλιος. Additionally, the sea serves as a backdrop for several key events in the Bible, such as Jesus calming the storm (Mark 4:39, BSB) and walking on water (Matthew 14:25, BSB), demonstrating His authority over nature. The sea is also a metaphor for the nations and peoples of the world, as seen in prophetic literature.
