In the context of the New Testament, it is used to describe individuals who have ownership or control over property or possessions. The word emphasizes the role of stewardship and responsibility that comes with ownership.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, ownership was a significant aspect of social status and economic power. Landowners and those with substantial possessions held considerable influence in society. The concept of ownership also carried with it the idea of stewardship, as owners were expected to manage their possessions wisely and justly. This cultural understanding is reflected in the New Testament's teachings on stewardship and the responsible use of resources.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/2932.htm">ktaomai</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a possessor<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>owners (1).<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 2935: κτήτωρ</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">κτήτωρ</span></span>, <span class="greek2">κτητορος</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span> (<span class="greek2">κτάομαι</span>), <span class="accented">a possessor</span>: <a href="/interlinear/acts/4-34.htm">Acts 4:34</a>.
