Strong's Lexicon hamartólos: Sinner Original Word: ἁμαρτωλός Word Origin: Derived from the Greek word ἁμαρτάνω (hamartanō), meaning "to miss the mark" or "to sin." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H2400 (חָטָא - chata'): To sin, miss the mark. - H7563 (רָשָׁע - rasha'): Wicked, guilty, criminal. Usage: The term "hamartólos" is used in the New Testament to describe individuals who are characterized by sin or who live in a state of sinfulness. It often refers to those who are morally or spiritually estranged from God. In the context of the New Testament, it is used to highlight the need for repentance and redemption through Jesus Christ. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Jewish culture of the first century, being labeled a "sinner" often carried a social stigma, as it implied a failure to adhere to the Mosaic Law and the traditions of the elders. Tax collectors, prostitutes, and Gentiles were commonly referred to as "sinners" by the Pharisees and other religious leaders. Jesus' association with "sinners" was a point of contention, as He sought to bring the message of salvation to all, regardless of their social or moral standing.
