However, the concept of laboring or working hard for the Lord can be related to Hebrew words like עָבַד (avad - Strong's H5647), meaning "to serve" or "to work."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Tryphosa is a proper noun used in the New Testament to refer to a Christian woman in the early church. The name is mentioned in the context of greetings and commendations by the Apostle Paul, indicating her involvement in the ministry and her dedication to the work of the Lord.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, names like Tryphosa, which are derived from words associated with luxury and delicacy, were not uncommon. Such names might reflect the social status or aspirations of the family. However, in the context of the early Christian community, these names take on a new significance as individuals like Tryphosa are commended for their labor and service, rather than for any worldly luxury or status.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/5172.htm">truphé</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Tryphosa, a Christian woman<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Tryphosa (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 5173: Τρυφῶσα</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Τρυφῶσα</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Τρυφωσης</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">τρυφάω</span>, which see), <span class="accented">Tryphosa,</span> a Christian woman: <a href="/interlinear/romans/16-12.htm">Romans 16:12</a>.
