Strong's Lexicon hamartéma: Sin, offense, transgression Original Word: ἁμάρτημα Part of Speech: Noun, Neuter Transliteration: hamartéma Pronunciation: hah-MAR-tay-mah Phonetic Spelling: (ham-ar'-tay-mah) Definition: a fault, sin, evil deed. Meaning: The term ἁμάρτημα refers to an act of sin or a sinful deed. It emphasizes the action or instance of sinning, rather than the state or condition of sinfulness. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb ἁμαρτάνω (hamartanō), meaning "to miss the mark" or "to err." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek concept of ἁμάρτημα is closely related to several Hebrew terms for sin, including: • חֵטְא (chet, Strong's Hebrew 2399): Refers to sin or an offense, often used in the context of missing the mark or failing to meet a standard. • עָוֹן (avon, Strong's Hebrew 5771): Denotes iniquity or guilt, emphasizing the moral culpability associated with sin. • פֶּשַׁע (pesha, Strong's Hebrew 6588): Translates to transgression or rebellion, highlighting a willful breach of God's law. These Hebrew terms, like ἁμάρτημα, convey the multifaceted nature of sin as both an act and a condition that separates humanity from God, underscoring the need for atonement and reconciliation. Usage: In the New Testament, ἁμάρτημα is used to denote specific acts of wrongdoing or transgressions against divine law. It is less frequently used than its related noun ἁμαρτία (hamartia), which often refers to sin in a more general sense. Context: The Greek term ἁμάρτημα appears in the New Testament to describe particular acts of sin. It is used to highlight the concrete actions that constitute a breach of God's commandments. The term is found in contexts where the focus is on the specific deeds that are contrary to God's will, rather than the inherent sinful nature of humanity. In the Berean Standard Bible, ἁμάρτημα is translated as "sin" or "sinful deed." For example, in Mark 3:28-29, Jesus speaks of the forgiveness of all sins and blasphemies, except for blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which is an eternal sin. Here, the term underscores the gravity of certain actions that have spiritual consequences. Theologically, ἁμάρτημα is understood as a violation of God's law, reflecting the moral and ethical standards set forth in Scripture. It serves as a reminder of the need for repentance and the transformative power of divine grace. The concept of ἁμάρτημα is integral to understanding the human condition and the necessity of redemption through Christ.
