In the New Testament, it is used both literally and metaphorically to describe physical produce, such as fruit from a tree, and spiritual or moral outcomes, such as the fruits of one's actions or character.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the agrarian society of the ancient Near East, the concept of "fruit" or "produce" was deeply significant, symbolizing not only physical sustenance but also prosperity and blessing. The metaphorical use of "fruit" to describe moral and spiritual outcomes was common in Jewish thought, reflecting the idea that one's actions and character are the "produce" of one's life.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/1080.htm">gennaó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>offspring<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>brood (4).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1081: γένημα</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">γένημα</span></span>, <span class="greek2">γενήματος</span>, <span class="greek2">τό</span> (from <span class="greek2">γίνομαι</span>), a form supported by the best manuscripts in <a href="/interlinear/matthew/26-29.htm">Matthew 26:29</a>; <a href="/interlinear/mark/14-25.htm">Mark 14:25</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/12-18.htm">Luke 12:18</a>; <a href="/interlinear/luke/22-18.htm">Luke 22:18</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_corinthians/9-10.htm">2 Corinthians 9:10</a>, and therefore adopted by <span class="manuref">T</span> (see his Proleg., p. 79) <span class="manuref">Tr</span> (<span class="manuref">L</span> <span class="manuref">WH</span> (see <span class="manuref">WH</span>'s Appendix, p. 148 and below)), printed by Griesbach only in <a href="/interlinear/luke/12-18.htm">Luke 12:18</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_corinthians/9-10.htm">2 Corinthians 9:10</a>, but given by no grammarian, and therefore attributed by Fritzsche (on Mark, p. 619f) to the carelessness of transcribers — for <span class="manuref">Rec.</span> (but in Luke, the passage cited <span class="manuref">R<span class="lexsuper">st</span></span> reads <span class="greek2">γενημ</span>.) <span class="greek2">γέννημα</span>, which see In <a href="/interlinear/mark/14-25.htm">Mark 14:25</a> Lachmann has retained the common reading; (and in <a href="/interlinear/luke/12-18.htm">Luke 12:18</a> <span class="manuref">Tr</span> text <span class="manuref">WH</span> have <span class="greek2">σῖτον</span>.
